Yes, '85 2.8, TBI SBC and 4bbl SBC all take different TV cables.

Re: kickdown problem on 700r4
Any Q-jet / 200-4R or Q-jet 700-R4 application works.
So, 85-88 Monte V8 w/ OD
83(?)-87 V8 LG4/L69 4bbl F-body w/auto
trucks
vans
B/D-bodies
They're under $20 at autozone for a new one.
After you get the new cable in, you may want to adjust it a tooth or two at a time until it's just right. Nothing like 20 trips around the block one after another.
