Im glad were on this subject, im also thinking of putting a 700r4 in my 66 for gas milage. And i was talking to a buddy about this and he installed one in a 55 chevy ,said to bypass the computer is to pull out the computer connection put in a ball and a spring. and that was it. Lets compare notes any one else here of this. thanks Eddie Eddie Bumgarner 66ss conv. ----- Original Message ---- From: Dale <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: The Chevelle Mailing List <chevelle-list@chevelles.net> Sent: Friday, May 2, 2008 9:56:15 PM Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] Another Question HELP PLEASE! Sadly I’m not an automatic guru much less a 700R4. That’s why I paid them to do the changeover. I’m sure a better educated 700R4 guru will chime in.

Just specifying 15” tires isn’t enough; you need the size and aspect ratio. Try the calculator at http://www.chevellestuff.com/tools/rpm_calculator.htm to give you an RPM range for a given tire size, rear end gear, and transmission. FWIW, when I went from a 4-speed to 700R4 I don’t remember anything having to do with wiring, only the correct cable for the kickdown. But then, I had mine done at Phoenix Transmission in Texas ; drove in w/4-speed, drove out with 700R4.

Got my Beaumont out of storage and drove it last weekend. I got a new job that is a 25 min. drive back and forth and will be putting on lots of miles. I am putting a 700 R4 ( gas price ) in and was wondering if any one has wiring diagrams for it or any one has done this and What will I run into. I already made new drive shaft, have new throttle bracket for kick down cable. Also bought speedometer piece that will take a cable. Was also wondering what kind of gear I will have in first with 336 and 15" tires? Any Help very much appreciated.
