When I posted, I assumed that the swap was not using the 700R4.
You are right - run this tranny without converter lockup in overdrive
will toast it in short order.

You can make the 700R4 always lock up in overdrive by changing a
pressure switch and a little re-wiring (this mod is detailed on
my WWW page under the Chevy-in-a-Jag swap).
