Speed sensor for 2004R with with 7730 TPI

I abandoned the 4L80E swap (won't go into all the details)...

But I'm now looking at a built 2004R as an alternative to going back to the 700R4 and that stupidly huge spread between 1st and 2nd gear.

I can get a complete 2004R set up (converter and everythign else) for $2400 from Bowtie Overdrives, capable of handling any future 427 sbc I hook up to it.

Question is, what speed sensor do I need to run in order to be compatible with the 7730 TPI system I'm running?

Don't know if this helps but: https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/tran...p-finding.html


It may be available local so you would need to see if it would work. My understanding is that the "bullet" is a different size than other 350, 700r4 or T5 "bullet" so special to the 2004R? HTH!
