You should have your modulator with a vaccum line running off of it to tell it when to shift.

Also if you want you can hook up the kickdown rod for it although not needed. If you have a after market carb i dont think it will have the setup for the kickdown anyway.

I have the C6 and I noticed some starting issues by having the park/neutral switch not hooked up. Took just a few minutes to align it, but caused hours of headache not having it hooked up. But I have efi also

Check your local laws, some states may require your reverse lights to work, regardless of whether or not the state has inspections.
