need help 4l60e

hey guy my friend has an 88 chevy it came with a 700r4 hes thinking about putting in an 4l60e because its the only one he can find at the junk yards problem is the plug he has a 4 wire and the transmission is a 12 wire. Does anybody know of an adapter or how to wire it up
Thanks

Finding a cheap 84-93 700R4 shouldn't be that hard. Do NOT use a 4L60E.

Good luck with that. The 4L60e will not function in a 700r4 vehicle without the propper controller. Its not just a matter of changing wires. The 700r4 is not computer controlled but the 4l60e is. Cant just change to it.
