Default New to the forum. 700r4 to ls3 intake

Hey guys. My apologies if this is in the wrong section but I am new. I was wondering if anyone knew how to hookup the tv cable from the 700r4 to a ls3 intake? Possibly a vendor that sells a bracket. I am using drive by cable.

Thanks in advance

So it might be assumed that you have converted it to a cable throttle body?
Yea, it's a stupid question, but theres that guy that will answer no to this. And that changes the original question dramatically.

Check with Bowtie Overdrives. I believe they have the backets and tv cable you are looking for.

Most of the throttle-bodies can be set-up to be used with a "throttle-valve cable"...

More importantly is that a bracket is used to mount the cable/ adjuster assembly on/ or near the intake manifold.
Proper adjustment of the cable is of the MOST IMPORTANCE!
The trans will slip and burn-up from low line pressure otherwise.

The bracket in this photo is an example... not the carb linkage... the bracket.





The Idiot proof method that many builder use for "throttle cable" transmissions (IE: 700-R4 and 200-4R) is to modify the valve-body for fixed line pressure.
I very much am happy with the fixed line pressure in race units but not so much with the street driven units.
