Default LS3, TH400 Kick Down question...

Anyone out there swap a TH 400 with and LS DBW swap? Looking for some previous solutions so as not to reinvent the wheel. I'm thinking about a micro switch at the pedal to energize the kick down. Your thoughts?

Just swapped one into my brothers 78 buick. On that one it ended up with plenty of room by the pedal to mount a bracket with the factory TH400 kickdown switch. But when I was looking in the PCM section it also mentioned that if you get creative with the TCC lockup programming you can us the output that used to go to the TCC lockup to provide the kickdown function. Never looked into that route any further than that though, mounting the factory kickdown switch turned out to be extremely easy.
