Dash Mounted, GPS & Brake Controlled Torque Converter Lockup Kit (for 200-4R, 700R4...)
This was our first idea and after prototyping with my '55 Chevy with 200-4R transmission, it has proven its durability and success.
The idea is to prevent locking up of torque converter prematurely which lowers driving comfort. There was a speedometer controlled lockup controller in the market was it was expensive, difficult to install and on top did not include brake relay, so you would buy it seperately.
You can BUY this product from ebay:
Product Features
Adjustable speed: 15-50mph (AU01000 model), 20-80kmh (AU01001 model)
(for bulk orders, these limits can be customised)
WARNING: Driving at overdrive with unlocked converter for extended duration may
overheat your transmission. Be cautious to set the optimum speed, not maximum.
Operating voltage: 12VDC-16VDC
Operating Current: Max. 1A @12VDC
GPS: MediaTek 3329 chip, -165 dBm, 22 tracking/66 acquisition-channel receiver
LCD: 16 chars x2 lines Blue Backlight (backlight is turned off after 20 secs)
10 seconds: Welcome Screen (for bulk orders, can be customised)
Permanently on screen: Target speed, actual speed and LOCKUP status

This module measures the driving speed by GPS, compares it with the driver adjusted value and turns ON transmission lockup by powering the lockup wire with automobile supplied voltage once the speed is exceeded. When brakes are applied or speed is decreased below limit, it automatically unlocks the torque converter.
You can BUY this product from ebay:
What you need is just to connect 4 cables and drive. No need for extra brake relay kits etc... Good for all lockup transmissions fed by 12VDC signal (200-4R, 700R4).
