Driving without throttle linkage

I have three Mopars currently running. They all shift exactly when I want them to. "How is that?", you say. I installed manual valve bodies in all of them and threw all the kickdown linkage in a bucket. I constantly see questions on here from people who are unhappy with their shift points; part throttle, full throttle, 1-2, 2-3, linkage issues, etc. The solution was simple for me.
