Torque Converter Control
Alright I looked at the tech article on a TC lockup switch, and I've looked at B&M, Hurst and Painless wiring for their versions. All I want is to keep the TC in overdrive when I'm crusing around 45-50 and up mph. Any suggestions.

Do you mean you want to keep it locked up above 45-50?
Your converter should already be locking up at those crusing speeds. The mph at which lockup occurs is programmed into the PROM. For the 350 I believe it is around 35mph.
As long as you are above that speed crusing, it should be locked up. The only time it will unlock above the specified speed would be at WOT or if you take your foot off the throttle.
The lockup switches your looking at are designed to lockup the converter at WOT.
