That 700R4!! What a piece of work...
Got one in my Blazer, make SURE you have the throttle cable adjusted correctly, or you will burn it up.

No problem, I also put in a late 350tbi at the same time (65 chev pu) but I trashcaned the tbi and all the computer garbage and repalced it with an early carb manifold and point ignition and a diesel kit in the 700R4.
The big advantage with the trans is that it has an overdrive plus it only uses 18hp.
I also moved it forward so I don't have to run a shroud on the radiator and the ignition is no longer tight to the firewall. It also made the trans linkage work without modification, all I did was weld up the column fork for shifting and didn't even bother removing the clutch pedal.
Having drivin it over a million miles with the 3 speed it took a couple of weeks to stop trying to use the clutch!
