Wiring of torque converter lockup....

i have a few questions...

im converting my 82 T/A to a 700r4 from the TH350 i converted it too a few months back

my questions are...how good are 86 model year 700r's?? i cant recall which year got the upgraded clutch packs and servos.

and how do you wire up the torque convertor lockup switch?
i had an 88 700r4 in my old red 82 t/a and i never bothered to wire up the tq convertor lockup,but i want to in my black t/a.

so basically all i want is it switchable on and off with a toggle somewhere,how do i go about wiring it up like this?

any and all help is greatly apreciated...thanks.

Mark,
I don't know about wiring the lockup, but i can tell you to go try and get an 87 + Trans; that 86 is junk

Did you try looking in the Haynes or Chilton at the wiring diagram?
Should be pretty simple.

Is there a tan and black wire going into the tranny?
