I have a 1996 Chevy truck with Vortec 350 and 4L60E. I am going to part out the truck and use the engine with a carb in one of my projects. I would like to know what it would take to use the transmission in my 53 Chevy truck. I know about the controllers but can I use the 1996 computer and wiring so I wouldn't have to buy the expensive controller? Can the TPS from the 96 be adapted to work with a carb? I found threads where people put carbs on trucks with this trans, but have not found any about a trans and computer swap. Thanks.
