I have a tranny dipstick and the stock linkage if you want it. $10 + shipping for both of them.

I recently swapped from a T56 to a CPT 4L60 in my '93. You will need a TV cable and a throttle body with the lug on it to connect to. The dipstick and tube can be purchased from any Chevy dealer (ask for one for a '93). For the shifter, I built a plate and mounted a Hurst Quarter Stick to it (I bought the kit that has the shift cable and trans bracket included). I am not sure about the speed sensor on a '93 trans, I believe it is for a cable driven speedometer. I simply installed a 40 tooth reluctor wheel from a '94+ 4L60e and got a speed sensor and pigtail to match. You will need to recalibrate your speedometer, I used a Dakota Digital SGI-5. As for TCC lockup, I had CPT put in a 4-pin weather-pack connector (only two of which are used), and wire the internal wiring so the converter would only lock in 4th gear. All I had to do was supply 12 volts to one side and switch the ground (through a brake switch and then through a low-vacuum switch). I welded an 1/8 NPT bung into the side of the trans pan for an Autometer temp gauge sending unit. I have 4.10 gears, 26 inch tires, and a Protorque 3800 converter. I LOVE THIS SETUP!!
