What angle in the manifold do you go with relative to 0 degrees?  closed loop, if so 2 o2
sensors? what kind of injectors and what kind of computer?

    It's not doing me any good, I don't need to rev my engine to get power from the
thing.  The power band and redline look more like a diesel, 4500 rpm max.  I will be
getting a used TH-400, which I will be attempting to rebuild around may or so.  The old
tranny ,TH-400,has managed to blow one posi rearend, which I later learned had good 3.42
richmond gears in it, and is working on the next.  Looks like the very harsh shifts
actually blew out the preload and allowed the pinion to grind away the carrier, damn
shift kits.  I will gladly part with it for a few bucks over shipping around then if your
still interested.
