Default help 6.0 swap in 73 2wd blazer. what trans?

Hey Everyone, this is a great site! a lot of info. Can someone steer me in the right direction please. I have a 73 2wd blazer that i am going to do a ls swap in. i have an 2005 6.0!!! tps 224 cam . I am not going to run the computer or fuel injection, putting an edelbrock intake and carb on it. My question is what trans do i run 700r4 since no computer?.. I'll post some pics soon.
Thanks
Bruce

6ltrs already have a fly wheel spacer, so you could use a 350,400, or 700r4. All will bolt up. Sky is the limit!
