Default Tuning for a stall converter

I don't want my TC to lock up until 50 mph or so in 4th. But now it locks up in 3rd and low RPMs in 4th. I have no idea how to change this in Edit. Can someone point me in the right direction?

you can raise the lockup MPH in one of the transmission tabs, I am not sure about the gear lockup though. I have been wondering how to keep it form locking up in 3rd at all...

If you don't want it to lockup in 3rd, raise all the values in the TCC tables, for 3rd apply, to 255(too high a speed for lockup). For other gears change the speed to the desired lockup speed. The numbers in the tables are mph and across the top % TP. If you never want the TC to lockup until 50mph then put 50 across the board in the 4th apply, up to 75% then 255 the rest of the way.

So if I dont want it to lock up at all in 3rd, I should set the MPH vs. %TPS for 255 in 3rd gear all the way across the %TPS lines? Same thing goes for the release I guess? And I guess I need to do it in the Normal, Performance, and Cruise tables just the same...

Basically I could just copy the 2nd gear settings over to the 3rd gear values...?
