B&M lock-up controller 700r4 & cross member question
 
okay im having some slight issues here. im in the middle of swapping from a th350c to a 700r4 in my '86. the tranny is an 88 trans out of a truck. i have converted it from electric speedo to mechanical. i bought one of those B&M lock up controllers for it and the instructions are good to say the least. i am having issues with the 4 prong plug in the side. when i look down inside it on the tranny there are 3 connectors in the plug out of the 4 prongs, but inside the plug that came with the kit there are only two connectors(for prong A & D), there is a provision for another connector, whats the deal with this? do i just plug it in and hook up the 2 wires (supply and ground) ? or is there something i have to do with this third prong(prong B)?

now for the crossmember... do i have to drill new holes in the frame for this ? it is kind of looking that way to me but i thought id ask anyone with experience.
thanks to anyone that can help !

here are the instructions for the controller http://static.summitracing.com/globa.../bmm-70244.pdf

Wire it the way the instructions say to.

Should not have to drill holes in a '86.

cause you want the lock up off when using the brakes

So the brake light switch cuts power to the trans?

The TCC side of the brake switch will, The brake light side of the switch is opposite.
