here is a trans go

and if you have Qs on the install Larry can help you.

i think if you don't always punch it at 25mph and make the trans drop in 1st and torque the hole thing your in good shape. dont manual shift it, don't down shift it. if i need to pass someone at 60mph i first hit the overdrive button with out my foot on the gas so when it down shifts it does have the motor torquing it had i had floored it.
