Installing EFI 5.3 into 1970 Chevelle with TH350 and 2.73 rear gears.
Today found a good 1994 Caprice 4L60e transmission.
And a good price, and I want over-drive, so all is well.
.
1.) I know newer is almost always better because GM has time to fine tune their products, so is 1994 too old?
.
2.) Are there threads about speedometer cable connecting?

In order to use the 4l60e and a cable speedo you will need either the cable-x box or you can purchase the swap kit that Street&Performance sells which allows you to use a 700r4 cable driven tailshaft n a 4l60e.

You can also check Jags that Runs (JTR) on there VSS/Cable tailhousings or conversion kits. (if they still market it).
Also, keep in mind the SBC 4L60E and the Gen III/IV might require different flex plate, spacer and converter?.. No expert on this subject yet.. suggest you research using SBC type of trans on Gen III/IV engines.. (.400" difference somewhere ?).
