I just ripped a complete 5.7L L98 TPI V8 and 700R4 transmission out of
a 1988 Camaro to stuff into a Toyota pickup - wiring and all. Total
cost: $600.
Summit Racing sells the brackets you need for the TV cable, if you
haven't found one already. No need to fabricate. Adjustment is
tricky. Don't burn up your transmission.
