Alright fresh from a local reputable builder, fired it up and it shifts like a kitten and flairs going into third.

He wanted to do his own thing to the valve body and reversed everything I had installed, he has done some consulting for Transgo and swears by their products. I busted the band anchor and wanted everything re bushed and set up so i would not have to touch it again apparently I had it set up pretty aggressivley. He removed the CK plate I had installed and set up what I thought was the stock BRF plate to transgo specs.
I found another plate on the shelf after I got the tranny back so the chances are I have a HTF plate in it now.
Here are the readings.
OTV FTV
P 65 275
R 110 215
N 65 260
OD 65 250
D 65 230
2 200 200
1 200 200

Its gotta be the plate right, the builders concern was 1 of the 2 holes missing on the CK plate which one I can't remember.
 
:oops:

So i'm a bit of a dumb ass......... I bought a Pioneer TV cable and thought I was good to go NOT!
The spring in the adjuster is way too weak, if I set it for full TV there is slack in the cable I needed about 2000RPM to see any pressure on my gauge, needless to say I'm waiting for 1 from Gbody parts.
I did install a set screw to hold the cable after I had it adjusted and all my concerns are gone. Shifts great firm and quick, told him I wanted the shift points raised they are at about 5800 rpm 2-3 shift rolled into it, springs and cam seem to pull all the way.

:D

Here is a link Jim (the guy that put my tranny together) Races a Pacer Wagon with an inline 6 won his class Stock Eliminator!
