I have put 1500 miles on mine with the TH400 in it and I have not tuned out the transmission stuff yet.
No problems.
It must not be hurting it cause it was running well enough to eat the 10 bolt rear.

Thats mainly what I wanted to know. I want to take it to the track this weekend but don't want it going in limp mode and decide to not get out of its own way.
