Do you really understand just what you are about to undertake? Unless you have lots and lots of time and a lot of wiring and engine experience, you are going to go through a nightmare! I did a tbi 302 bird to a carb and untimately to a projection, but the tranny was not electronic (AOD). The TBI birds had no potential as oem.
As long as you understand what you are getting into, go for it, but my .02 is you will be @#$%$*! for a long time wondering why you did it. Also, (.02) you will not pick up any MPG and will certainly lose driveability. Not to argue with anyone, but the E4OD is not controlled by the TPS only. The torque converter lock-up strategy is controlled by something else, dosnt matter where your foot is.
Several people make stand alone controllers, but for the money you are fixing to spend, you sure could fix up your ride a lot. Go for it if you want, but you have been warned!!
BTW----LOL!!
