Forgive me but I have talked to several guys about their transmission projects since you and this thread is really long to read through but is this this a stock valve body with a shift kit? If so which shift kit? also, do you have rpm specs on the shift points rather than speeds? With your low gears and short tire it's going to shift kinda early

Sorry for the slow response been trouble shooting a bit.
I did install a TF2 Kit on the valve body. However, while it was an original valve body someone had been in it before me. So that got me thinking what would happen if I put in an original unmolested 68 date code valve body. I happened to have one in the shed so I cleaned it up and installed it. This seemed to help a tone because now I had kick down and was shifting at 1500 and 2500, I also had kick down. But everything now feels soft and mushy.
Lot's more to do. btw I did find a lot of friction material in the pan.
