its pretty straight forward.
just make sure you set the TV cable up correctly or you can damage your box VERY VERY quickly.

yeah it is pretty strait forward, make sure you also lock in the torque/stall converter in properly aswell, alot of people dont do this right and wonder why she dont work!

locking in the torque converter probably meaning sitting the converter properly on the box before bolting it onto the engine
you have to hold the converter so the shaft is as close to horizontal to gearbox as possible while applying SLIGHT pushing pressure and turning at the same time. it should click in a couple of times.
as for the tv cable
