Even if they were working super hard to turn a locked engine i have trouble believing they would drop...

    Up date!!! I got a purple vac mod for the trans, I only had time today to put it in and drive it around the block but it looks like the shift points went from 2nd at 5mph and 3rd at 15mph to 2nd at 10-12mph and 3rd at 25mph. Its not a bad spread since this is only my Daily(for know) but...

    And I put in a new vacuum modulator, i bought a black stripe but when I received it there were no "stripes" on it. Just the standard gold finish with a black O ring. Is this going to have any affect on anything?

    Hiwndo i test the VRV for function? Its new but i guess that doesnt mean good. Top vac line comes from the tree and the bottom goes to trans mod. I guess i could try swapping just for S&G's

    It reves to the governor but wont shift up. The old VRV was clogged/plugged and the the trans wouldnt shift unless done manually, now its shifting way to soon. It runs great shifting manually, runs smooth, but if im in second at 30-35 and go from 2 into D it goes right into 3rd.
