Shift point?

How did you pin the PV open?

(Side note, I still wanna make your scoop.)
Some day it's just gonna show up on your porch..

But pinning It Wide Open should give it the problem that you're talking about it having? Especially if it has a variable valve pressure. Pinning It Wide Open would hold the shifts out as long as possible and give an extra strong shift, which is probably what you want for the most part. But my manual shift just shifted when I wanted it to and if I start out in 3rd it would start out in 3rd if I start out and second it would start out in second. But it shifted absolutely perfect I mean the best shifting transmission I ever had as far as an automatic. But me personally I would never have one of those -- wait a minute, I can't say never , I Just Did Last Summer LOL
NEVER AGAIN!!!!!
