About that kickdown cable, when I ran a T350 I just pulled the cable all the way out and crimped it down, that way your fooling the tranny into thinking your at WOT all the time which will increase line pressure. I ran one that way for 4 years in my 81 Z28 dragcar, never had any trouble, screw a manual valve body, it didnt cost me nothing to pull that cable out and clamp it down.
the way I read his last post he is talking about the vacuum modulator valve not the kick down cable.I could be wrong. Also, what happens if you don't use a kick down cable at all?How does that work with a th400? I ran a th400 in my chevelle and don't remember any type of cable at all...just a vacuum modulator.I had it rebuilt and don't know what was done to it but I could manually shift it or put it in drive.I also never had it shift out of low on it's own with the shifter in low.Someone told me once that a th400 will do that(shift out of low on it's own)
