I put in a pre computer one in mine and with the diffrent valve body and a lock up kit from TCI you dont have to worry about the trans burning up.

Re: Putting a 700 r4 tranny in a 71 chevy
What year is it. Might be pre (or no) lock-up.

Re: Putting a 700 r4 tranny in a 71 chevy
I second the TCI kit...
I like that it allows you to add switches to lock the tranny in any gear, or disable lockup which lets you use 4th gear while towing (like the new trucks). it only takes about 10 minutes to install (not including pan removal and re-installation)
