Running (not driving) a 4L80E without electronics?

Running (not driving) a 4L80E without electronics?
Is it ok to run my engine with the 4L80E and converter bolted up and ready to go but not have the EZ-TCU connected yet? Engine operation would be idle only and the transmission would be left in park. Reason being, I've got the LS engine in the car (BMW) and running (trans not installed) but will have to switch PCM's and rewire the harness for cable throttle. I don't want to wire in the EZ-TCU to the DBW harness only to have to tear it apart once I switch to DBC. I would like to install the transmission if I can while maintaining the ability to run the engine so I can test the PCM/Wiring change.
Thanks!

Why don't you just use the TCI TCU?
My buddy who's going to help me install my 80E has a 80 in his 71 GS 455 and loves the TCI TCU.
I'm going to use my compushift 1 in my nova.
