Question on the 700R4 trans

Hi, I have a 1987 formula with the 305 engine and the Rochester cc carb. I would like to change to an EFI system. My question is, if i remove the carb with all the sensors that the ECM needs, what will happen to my transmission. I understand the ECM controls the lock out, is it using input from one of the carb sensors??

Thanks in advance for your input.
