Transmission Swap 700r4 to Turbo 350

This is for a 1992 Camaro 350 TPI Z28 and we are swapping in a T350 to replace the 700r4. We have already ordered a custom crossmember and driveshaft so thats all taken care of. Heres the problem, the kickdown cable doesn't fit. Is there a universal kits online that someone sells that I can purchase a Kickdown cable? what can I do to make this work? any suggestions or links to other sites would be greatly appreciated.

the kickdown cable doesn't fit.
It won't , TV cable from T700 controls all trans functions .
On a TH350 it only makes the trans down down a gear.
If you want to manually shift the trans down when you want to accel you don't even need it

If this car was for me I wouldn't be asking this question I woulda converted the trans to a manual Valvebody to completely eliminate all of this but this car is for my friend he doesn't want that i already fixed the problem too I just ordered a kit from summit
