Actually, no it was not. The low band apply will not stop the transmission failure. The only way to stop or drastically cut back the failure is any manual valve body and doing burnouts in 2nd gear. The baddest assed low/reverse band in the world will not stop a 727 drum explosion in extreme situations. Just like a bolt in sprag will not. Read up on how fast the front drum spins. There's no amount of low band apply that will stop it. 2nd gear burnouts will. The low band apply is totally meaningless if you do the burnout correctly in 2nd gear, because the low band is not even applied in 2nd.
