I haven't followed all the msgs closely , but IF you are going with the 400 - i believe that they have an electric kickdown system - hadn't seen any mention of that. IF you are going with a 700 - they have electric lockup for the torque converter. I've got links that may help with the wiring. 400 & 700 are close to the same length. If you need to shorten drive shaft for one, the other will need it too. A 700 can withstand a mild big block on the street, especially a mostly cruiser only. If you want to use tires that will hook you up, the 700 will not last too long unless its built by a pro. Post 86 700's are stronger than earlier years. rick schaefer 72 El Camino http://members.home.net/jimmy4/rick1972elky.html TPI 350-700r4 http://chevelles.com/showroom/ricks%20motor%20-L Team Chevelle # 0038 ACES #0140 On Sun, 24 Mar 2002 22:48:50 -0500 "Lojac" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > Is this an easy swap or complicated?
