True, I do need to get dialed in, Roger. I might hit you up on that.
It's tough getting used to how hard that lockup hits (or my words from earlier, jerks). That'll take some getting used to, but how hard it pulls now, I'm really startin to enjoy it. I pull away from traffic rather easily.

Joe, ya I know.

Same here, Tiny. Thanks for kind words. I have, do, & will continue to say they both build a nice product. I'm glad u put my mind at ease, & told me that jerk is the lockup. I was startin to get worried, & I sure didn't wanna pull trans, so it's nice to nice it's normal w/. a stall.

I like your truck. Sweet color too!
And it's not loud. Certainly not as loud as I thought it'd be. I was expecting obnoxious.

 

Congrats Tom! time for some Boost!!!

 

Tom with the HD shift valve we install the coasting down shifts will be more noticeable. Especially in the D3 shifter position. This is due to the fact that the over run clutch is now applied in this range for 1st, 2nd and 3rd gears. In the OD range the coasting down shifts should not be as noticeable as they are in the D3 position. If and when () you are doing spirited driving, please keep the shifter in the D3 position. With this valve body modification the over run clutches will be applied in all gears 1st-3rd. This helps the input sprag with it's holding power and that is a good thing. Vince

 

That's good info about staying in D3...I guess that's the way to run it at the track also?

Tom, did you try adjusting the neutral safety switch yet?

 

Yes D3 at the track. I think track use would fit into the same category as "spirited driving!"

 

"Spirited 1320 driving"

 

Thanks for the valuable info Vince. I was gonna ask u if I had to run in 3rd at track before u ever posted in this thread.

I went over my best friend Joe's today. I cleaned up my fluid leak at trans AN fittings off of the frame, exhaust, X-member & whatever it got on. Then I tightened em up. It took longer to that than to fix my next problem.
I went over my Neutral Safety Switch & studied how it mounted. It was then adjusted & checked to see if it made a difference.
It did!!! All detents are exactly where they should line up at, very defined, & agree w/. selector on cluster.

Shifts butter smooth, but firm.
I might not even have to mess w/. shift points, but may just to see. I still wanna look at trans tables on HPT.

FLT ROCKS!!!
So does Circle D!!!

I haven't been able to do it yet, as I said a few days ago, but pics will be up tomorrow. MONDAY at latest. They're coming SnakeOiler...& others.

 

Good to hear Tom. Have a great holiday. Vince

 

Right back atcha Vince!!!

 

I gotta see if my PICS will load, but here's a starter. 295/35/18, think it'll help me lay down some power?
As a reference, when I stretch my fingers like that, it's 9" from thumb-most outstretched finger, pinky.

I wanna say 10.2" contact patch.


More pics to follow. I gotta downsize all of them since they're way too big, I wish photobucket had a better, faster way.
