- 1987 VL Calais Walkinshaw
I found a few posts on here about the vn t700 trans's but no definitive answers. If i missed it please refer me to the post as it has surely been covered before.
I am throwing a vn 304/t700 into my VL commodore running the factory vl calais dash.
Pic 1/2/3
The factory drive appears to be an electronic setup to me which is no good for the VL Calais mechanical drive dash. I found one site that says to remove the sender (pics 1/2) leaving the drive itself (pic 3). I know my speedo cable wont reach the drive so I will need a new cable and found this somewhere on the net.
other option I was thinking of was is there an extension someone knows of that will convert etc. Dont wantto have to get the v6 conversion box is all.

also on the side of the box is a white 4 pin plug. I assume two are for the lockup and 2 for the reverse. Does anyone know which is which pin?
Regards

Use a speedo cable borgwarner,2speed power glide To ht holden etc
Early t700 has same screw on backing nut as the powerglides and early borgwarner gear boxes
