Well I finally got my PTS street/strip installed that I bought from you in March!!!
I know I can call you guys for support but I am always working or sleeping and this is an easier forum for me if you don't mind.
I have a couple of questions ( I am tranny illiterate).

1.) I have an extender chip and have tried locking the billet 9X11 converter @ 45, 50, and 55 with the chip for Hyway cruise. It doesn't lock. It does however lock 100% of the time if I lock her with an ADL jumper. Sound like a chip or tranny bug?

2.) I have adjusted the TV cable per the GM specs many times.

(Made sure that cable could not move anymore by hand at the throttle body with the accelerator floored)

1st and 2nd gears really hold the shifts when trying to drive normal.
At 1/4 pedal or less it doesn't shift out untill 2600-2800 RPM then bangs into gear real hard. Feels like I am going to tear the universals or rear end out.

I don't want to try "mal" adjusting the TV cable for softer shifts, that's only asking for problems.

3.) I have tried to lock the converter @ WOT at various MPH. The car shutters so violently that I have to let off.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I drove the car with the new trans in it for 600 Miles then I drained the fluid (got ~7.5 qts out) and replaced with new fluid.
I have ~750 miles on it now.
Nothing changed.

The tranny works fine @ WOT. No problems there, really barks.
Any ideas you might have would be great.

BTW, I had a local tranny shop do the install and they were very impressed with the trans and converter. (I had her in Valie mode so I took all the fun away from them on their test drive.

This is not my regular driver so their is no urgency. Just whenever you can respond back will be great.
Thanks,
Rich
 
Bogie, I can't tell you much on what is happening with your unit, but I do need to get you directly with Bruce, so he can walk you thru whatever is up. All of our units are tested real world in our test mule and don't leave here unless they pass Bruce's own run up and test drive with your converter in it.
E-mail us when and where he can get ahold of you. Thanks, Mark
