tranny downshifting on dyno i did a search and didn't find anything.i dyno'd today and my tranny kept downshifting into 2nd. gear at about 5000rpms.it wouldn't stay in third.car has a MW3000 stall TQ.it seemed like the guy doinng the run was rollling into the throttle,but i wasn't watching the computer when he did the runs.or is this a common problem with some higher stall TQs?it runs fine on the street,doesn't slip when shifting.or maybe the shift settings aren't right?
anybody have a similar experience?

and the funny thing was i topped out at 354rwhp before it downshifted,which most of the mustang guys thought was pretty strong.i thought it was a little low,lol.even some of the mustangs on spray were only 25-35rwhp more than me.
