I've a budget oriented 406 TPI in the works at the moment. Going on a T56 in
a convertible thirdgen.

Is not ANHT the TPI VETTE cal that does some control or monitoring with the
vette trans?  what general tweaks are nessecary to run it in, say, a F-body
without these tranny (or whatever they are) features?
