- TH700 is the GM 4 speed auto, might be called a 700-R4 more correctly;
- I do not know.
-
- All you lock/unlock folks might be interested to know that there is a
- "positive fix" for this behaviour. A top gear autolocker for the
- TH700 and the TH350 can be installed. A shift into top gear locks
- the converter after about a second. No MAP, TPS, ECM, etc.
-
- Gene Chris??? makes and installs and warentees these at his tranny shop
- in Van Nueys, CA. There are others.
