Switch Pitch

[Gary Derian]

It is an oversimplification to call the DynaFlow a single speed
transmission.  The various elements of the torque converter were connected
to various elements of a planetary gearset.  The result is closer to a
continuously variable transmission than it is to a single speed one.
