cruise control

[Doug Engel]

In theroy, if we are talking about the same thing, the longer it is, the faster
the torque converter will go into lockup and the later you will get a downshift.
The shorter you make it, the reverse should be true. I have mine shortened up
somewhat to hold gears a little longer due to our mountianous terrain (read:
lots of big hills that makes Pokey go real slow). Let me know how it works out.

the transmission kick down/shift point system. If it has never been attatched, I
can't see how your tranny could have been shifting correctly, so maye this is
something else.
