Wish I could remember where I saw it, but the early models WILL burn up if the lock up is not wired up. "Late" models are OK with out it. No, I don't know what divides early and late. I've been running my '92 for a couple years w/o the lock up connected. Just lazy I guess.

you need lockup as to not overheat 4th gear

Is it true that if you don't wire the 700 R4, you simply never have OD, but you can run it like a standard trans? I ask because I have never found clear answers for several questions regarding this model trans.

Here are some of them:

A) If it must be wired, which wire on the four pin of the trans is the feed/hot and which runs to the pedal and is grounded following the brake switch? I really don't care about the OD, as I have 300 slob gears in my 9 inch, so until I get the money for 488s, I have a stupid and bogging OD.

Secondly, the t hrottle and trans cable are to match 100 percent from resting idle through full throttle radius, correct?

Thirdly, I have a Quadro-slob; do any of you guys know if the 700R4 was put in GM models early enough to get a hold of a factory Q-slob or manifold bracket? If so which year, make, etc.)? I ask because it would be so nice to simply get a factory cable and carb bracket and be done with all this finite trans-blowing-up fun.
