There isn't any linkage with a 4L60e, just the shift cable. Any shifter would work as long as you changed out the plate to allow for the overdrive gear.

Sorry, thought you were talking about linkages... yes, you need to connect the wiring harness to the trans. There are two connections, one is for the trans control from the ECM and the other is the speed sensor. Just use the wiring harness from the engine, it should be all one unit and have this wiring.
