TH400 Kickdown switch plug needed

I'm converting from a TH350 to a TH400 and I am in need of the plug, boot and as much of the wire as possible, that goes onto the transmission kick-down solenoid.

If anyone can help me out I would appreciate it. If they're in CT, I can pick up.

Thanks very much!

I assume its for the full sizer pictured. In an A body its part of the harness but not used. Maybe your's is the same way?

Sorry, I should have offered more details in my request.

The trans is out of a '69 Delta and is going into a '69 Cutlass. As outlined in the 1969 PIM, I found the connector that plugs onto the kick-down switch taped back onto its harness. The PIM says that if the car in question was made with a TH350, the connector that would normally be used to plug onto the TH400's kick-down solenoid is to be cut off. Evidently whoever's job it was to cut that connector off, cut the entire wire off right at the backside of the fuse panel on the firewall!

Long story short, I am in need of the connector plug, its boot and as much of its wire lead as possible.

Hmmnnn.....didn't realize they made a repo harness. A used one would have been fine, but this looks like a great solution.

Many thanks!
