Difference between 4L60 and 4L60E

Hi, all.
My 1982 Chevy van (full size) needs a new transmission. It had a THM 700R4.
(This transmission was renamed the 4L60).

I am looking at buying a 1992 full size Chevy van as a donor truck for parts, including the transmission.

Sometime during 1992 - 93, Chevy started putting the electronic shift version of this transmission in the vans, the 4L60E. I do not want one of these.

So, how can I tell if the 1992 truck has an electronic shift version or the older, hydraulic version? I was thinking the electronic shift version would not have a TV (throttle valve) cable, but I am not sure.

Note, both versions use electrical wiring harnesses.

Any thoughts?
