Does anyone have the B&M lockup control on their 700r4?

buy the 700R4 holley bracket for the linkage, and I had a B&M kit which locks torque converter based on speed, but sold it since I switched to a TH350 trans instead a few years ago.

ok so explain to me how that works? you set it to a certain speed and it automatically locks it up? then once you get under that speed it unlocks it? what do you do for WOT when its locked up? does the converter typically unlock with a computer controlling it? i dont know how all of that works.

Here this might help a little.

I used a 2 prong 4th gear switch which complicated things but will still work.
