equipped with a TV cable, reconnect and
adjust the TV cable, see (Fig. 6). IMPOR-
TANT: You must reset the TV cable before
operating the transmission. Failure to
reset the TV cable may result in poor shift
quality and early transmission failure.
STEP 21. Reconnect speedometer
cable or VSS connector, any electrical
connectors and shifter cable. Make sure
the cooler tube connector fittings are tight
in transmission case, then either con-
nect cooler lines and tighten tube com-
pression nuts with a fitting wrench (to
avoid damaging the nuts) or reinstall the
retaining clips.
STEP 22. If the vehicle originally had a
TCC and transmission installed, plug in
the electrical connector on the left side of
the case (See Fig. 7) and the TCC in the
new converter will operate. If you do not
want the TCC to operate, cut the wire
going to pin marked “A” on the TCC plug
going into the electrical connector on the
left side of the case. Tape the ends of the
wire to prevent shorts.
If the transmission is installed in a
vehicle that did not originally have a TCC
and transmission the TCC will not oper-
ate. The lockup clutch can be made to
operate in this type of application by
using the B&M Converter Lockup Control
(#70244 for mechanical drive speedom-
eters, #70248 for GM electronic speed
sensor applications). This unit connects
to the speedometer drive cable or to the
plug for the electronic speed sensor and
lets the driver set the speed at which the
TCC will lock and unlock to any speed
between 30 and 90 mph.
STEP 23. Install driveshaft (and torque
arm if used). Make sure the U-joint bear-
ings are properly positioned in their
seats. Tighten U-joint nuts or bolts se-
curely.
STEP 24. Lower vehicle but keep the
rear wheels off the ground if possible.
Add five quarts of transmission fluid to
the transmission. Place transmission in
NEUTRAL and start the engine. Add fluid
to transmission (as per the manufactur-
ers' rfluid check recommendation) until
the fluid level is between the FULL and
ADD marks. Shift the transmission
through all gear positions. If the wheels
are off the ground, allow the transmis-
sion to shift through all gears several
times. Place selector in NEUTRAL and
check the fluid level again. DO NOT
OVERFILL. Check for leaks around the oil
pan, cooler lines, etc. Turn off engine
then lower vehicle and test drive.
OTHER B&M PRODUCTS
B&M Manufactures several other
transmission products ideally suited for
4L60E, TH700-R4 and TH200-4R trans-
missions.
1. TH700-R4 (#70235) & 4L60E
(#70265) TRANSPAK The Transpak kits
are designed to increase the torque ca-
pacity and significantly improve the shift
feel in addition to promoting longer
transmission life. All of the necessary
parts and instructions, including gas-
kets and a new oil filter are supplied with
the kit.
2. TH200-4R TRANSPAK (#35229) The
TH200-4R Transpak is designed to in-
crease the torque capacity and signifi-
cantly improve the shift feel in addition to
promoting longer transmission life. All of
the necessary parts and instructions,
including gaskets and a new oil filter are
supplied with the kit.
3. POWER SWITCH KIT (#80217) The
B&M Power Switch Kit allows the lock-up
portion of the converter to be temporarily
eliminated and the converter reverted to
a standard type converter. This gives the
ability to operate the vehicle with a stan-
dard type torque converter when it is
more desirable than the lock-up type.

4. TH700-R4 Special Deep Pan (#70289)
adds approximately 3 quarts extra oil
capacity. This attractive chrome pan also
incorporates a built in drain plug to help
simplify the more frequent oil changes
required of high performance transmis-
sions. The larger surface area and fluid
volume of this pan helps reduce the
transmissions oil temperature thereby
promoting longer transmission life.
5. TRANSMISSION OIL COOLERS. De-
sign features of the new “High Tech”
transmissions cause them to run hotter
than earlier transmissions. We recom-
mend that every vehicle using an auto-
matic transmission in heavy duty appli-
cations (racing, towing, RV, commercial,
off road, fleet) have an auxiliary transmis-
sion oil cooler. Addition of an auxiliary oil
cooler will not only reduce transmission
oil temperature but it will also signifi-
cantly reduce the heat load on the radia-
tor. Heat is a major cause of automatic
transmission failure, an auxiliary oil
cooler is an inexpensive guard against
overheating and failure. B&M offers a
complete range of transmission coolers
to suit every application, available at your
B&M dealer. A non-lockup torque con-
