its going in a 1960 cadillac, and a 5 spd would be ok just cant find any. I found a 47re for 200.00 in a running driving truck. just not sure of the wiring to make it work.

Don't know if they ever released the standanlone computer for them, but yes, you will need a computer. 96 started the RE with governor pressure control.
Either find a 94-95 RH or a 5 speed. Actually, you probably wouldn't lose all that much by going with a 91.5-93 618 OD trans, and they are pretty cheap, all you would miss is TC lockup. You would have to use gen 1 adapter plate and starter, but that stuff is cheap as well.
