by: steve

i installed a 700r4 in my 1980 & in a 1971 big block car, i would highly recommend checking out 'bowtie overdrives" website,they can steer you however you want to go, it is a fair amount of work (driveshaft change, & trans mount)but much better performance & gas milage than the 350 lockup that was in there.they can also hook you up with the proper "tv" setup for the 700r4 to match your throttle on whatever carb. you are using.
hope that helps!
