You don't have a "kickdown " cable on a T700

and you also need to control the convertor lockup somehow once you have a carb

thanks for the thread reference, I'm aware of the TCC lockup. For some reason I was thinking I had to order a bracket for the TV cable but looking back I think that Camaro may have had a TH350

EDIT

I apologize for using the wrong terminology, I meant TV cable to begin with. The camaro I worked on prior did have a 700r4, we had to order an aftermarket bracket for the cable. I needed that part #, thanks for the reference vetteoz!

 

What do you mean by "stand alone"?

A ccc q-jet need a "computer", along with a ccc distributor, O2 sensor, manifold vacuum sensor, barometric pressure sensor, and coolant temp sensor. Trying to run it without any of them will put it into "limp home" full-rich mode. It can get along without the EGR or AIR.

 

I guess that means the hunt is on for a carb then.
