got it in, i guess im not used to the way it shifts yet? seems much different than stock. if your not down in the gas its in OD asap. seems very crisp though. so thumbs up for now i pulled it the hard way, should have just dropped the k!

its been tuned previously at 21st century muscle cars, it acutally shifted harder with the stock tranny in it. it shift fine now dont get me wrong it just shifter harder before hand. will see about retuning it to see if the quick shifting can be fixed.

A higher stall is gonna absorb more of that "shift" feeling compared to a stock converter where you feel it more.

not only that a performnce trans doesnt mean that it has to shift hard to be a performance trans it has to shift firm and fast.

How do you like your trans by FLT?

Tuning could fix your "shifting early" problem..and converter lock-up speed.
