Had some nice weather this weekend - 60* and sunny (I love Colorado!). Took the car out for a couple of hours. Drove in traffic, and some open roads. Hammered the throttle a few times, but mostly gentle street driving in traffic.

A significant improvement. Shifts are gentler, especially the 1-2 upshift. Other shifts are almost imperceptible, even under hard throttle. Brakes are much improved. Car is much more predictable and easier to drive.

I think going a bit higher on the stall would be slightly better. I installed a 3,200-3,400 stall, but going one step higher to 3,400-3,600 will improve low throttle operation, and braking.

I'm going to use the engine oil temp as a trans temp gauge. When I can get time, I'll install the sensor in the cooler line. Summer time in the mountains might heat up the fluid. Or not. We'll see.
