anyways my issue is i hear when doing the low gear set in slants they tend to not like the big drop into second even with the big gears, for this reason im thinking of staying away from the 700 as its a 3.06 first!
your right ....that is the same problem I have with the 833 OD is the huge drop from first to second...which is 3.09 to 1.67 ....most of the time the car dogs out for a second or two.
I don't know much about 200R4 or 700 R4 but I would stay away from really wide gear sets ...so I would rule out the 700 R4
it looks like the 200R4 and 904 are pretty even except for the addition of the OD which is probably what you want.
great info here ...I have never really driven an automatic car and I never knew a 200R4 had such benefits.
