Been a while, but I think GM only made 2. One was 39 inches the other about 43 inches long. I'll have to look into this...

But as John said... TH200, TH2004R and TH700R4 were TV cables. Not kick down cables. Run with TV cable unhooked and you burn out the clutches very quick...

I may have had my terminology mixed. I understood only that the TV cable is a thing with the pre-computer 4-speed autos, and if I'm going to swap the 200 metric for a 2004R from a 442, then I'm going to need some bracketry to get the TV cable working with the dualjet. After some looking on other forums, I'll likely be able to find something in the aftermarket. I'm still in the decision-making phase.

TH200/200C also had TV Cables. If you are using the dual jet for proper year, it should have the correct connector on it or the hole drilled. I'll try to get you a photo.
