2.2K Ohm 1/2 Watt resistor. Bend it into a U shape, push into female side of CAGS connector. Tape it up, zip tie it to the trans tab, done.
4 for .99 at the Shack.

Much more reliable than the built up CAGS eliminators, because you don't have any connections or wiring to go bad. Your putting the resistor directly into your existing harness and your done.

Sometimes, you just don't want to rev it OR shift to 4th... best mod you can do for the Vette. Easy to reverse as well.

I have done the radShack method, too - a couple months going strong now.

My variation is to plug the connections back together, but before doing so, have a rubber dam in between to prevent the original connection from happening. It looks fairly oem, except for the subtle zip tie keeping the plugs together.
