87 IROC-Z 700r4 Transmission

I have pulled the original wiring harness out of my 87 IROC because the system isn't capable of doing what I want it to do. I have installed a FAST ECM with dual sync distrib which is currently installed..

What I am trying to get an understand is how the transmission electronics needs to be wired.

Here is what I know.. The transmission has a top gear selector switch and a Torque convertor switch.

Do you have to use the top gear selector switch in order to use the TCC.

Which wire by color would go to where??

Re: 87 IROC-Z 700r4 Transmission

In the tranny section, there is a sticky at the top that discusses TC lockup with wiring diags and info on the 700R4. Yours is a tricky year, mid 1987 GM made changes inside the 700R4, so you'll need to follow that sticky and determine which tranny you have, whether you have a NO or NC switch, etc.

Oops - it's in the carb section, not the tranny section...
