4th gen transmission swap

I'm planning on building a crawling specific 4th gen 4runner, and wanted to remove the hot, smooth shifting A340 for something a little stronger, and upgradeable, and have lots of choices for really low t-cases.

I'm not afraid of a some work, but don't really want to have to mess with the computer at all. so i was thinking and older, overdrive 700r4 from a chevy truck. i can get an adapter plate from LCE performance to adapt my 1GR-FE to a chevy tranny.

I know i'd have to hook up the kickdown cable from the transmission to the shifter, and i'd have to install that reluctor ring onto the transmission or the transfer case somewhere. And also will the truck even run without the tranny conectors plugged in, or will it just give me some check engine lights?

I'm new to this forum, so sorry if im in the wrong place. Thanks to all who reply.
