Another newbie

I just got my 71 swb fleetside and have a trans issue. It has a 700R4 tranny. How do I make the convertor work? I will post a pic if someone will tell me how. Thanks Mike

welcome from TN

there are some post about the 700r4 on the board, i'm putting one in my truck as well. from the research i've done i decided to use the Painless Wiring setup to make the converter work.

here's the post but it looks like you've been there:
http://207.44.196.117/vboard/showthread.php3?t=127057
check your local hotrod/ streetrod shop for painless products, i think Summit sells their stuff as well

here's the product, scroll to bottom:
