Automatic Tranny Question with an Inline 6

I have seen Brad's write up on the T5 into his truck and I am impressed to say the least. Unfortunately due to some severe knee issues, a manual tranny won't be in my future. I currently run a 250 inline and an SM465 truck 4 speed that sounds as though it will be spilling it's guts on my driveway soon. What exactly would it entail for me to put in a 700R4? Connection wise, I get that I will have to move the crossmember and get the driveline hacked...The only variable I am worrying about is the TV cable. What if I were to put in a TH350, my tires are 29 inches tall and I have a 3.73 posi out back. Would I really kill my mileage all that much? Or is it stupid of my not to go with the 700R4? Never dealt with a TV cable, everyone I have had was a 4L60E. Thanks in advance to Brad and Pickmup for their assistance.

Josh

Good judgment comes from experience, and experience, well......that comes from bad judgment.


1968 Chevy C-10 "Longshot": Bought used from my Uncle George in 1994 and proceeding to beat the hell out of it for 4 years. Sold it. Bought it back, dumped an ungodly amount of money into it since then.
