Re: 700R4 build thread.

Converter TV Valve/Converter Shift Valve.

**NOTE, Valve Bodies manufactured after '88 usually do not have the bore machined, And some are not machined for the Converter Shift Valve, But are Machined for the Converter TV Bushing.**

If your Valve Body Is not machined for BOTH valves Ignore this post!!!!!

Remove Converter TV Bushing, TV Valve & spring, & Converter Shift Valve If equipped.

If the Valve Body has Outer & Inner Aluminum Dummy Plugs, Remove those.

Replace with a TransGo 700-LU Hydraulic Lock-up valve kit.
Read the instructions, DO Not Install Checkball in the TCC Solenoid!!! As much as I like some TransGo stuff, Blocking the TCC solenoid is retarded.

Ground the Black wire of the TCC Solenoid to a Valve Body bolt.
Run the Red wire of the TCC Solenoid to a "Dual Pole" brake switch to kill the Power to the TCC solenoid when the brakes are applied.

This will apply the TCC after 3rd gear under normal driving, And after 4th gear during hard driving. Will unlock with heavy throttle. Works really GOOD!
