700r4 with a LS1

Ok I have searched came up with a few post,that told me what I knew to start. And some guy leaving his tv cable unhooked . The 700r4 will bolt up ommitting 1 bolt and the convertor will work using an adapter. Anyone have pics of how they did the TV cable. I'm thanking a TV cable from a TPI engine and custom linkage but would like to see any pics or links to information on this. My 700r4 is new and was planning on building a carbed engine but have decided the 6.0 is the way to go. Thanks for any help.

1.25 inches from idle to WOT is the distance you want the TV cable to travel from idle to WOT.

They have many different kits and brackets out there.

Easiest way I have ever found, hit the yard and cut TV cable tabs off various TB's. Figure out how/where to weld onto yours. solid and stable, just make sure you have the correct travel distance or you will have issues from day one.

They also make many little bracket/jerry rigging kits, but welded onto the TB always seems safer/more sure to me.

later
