If you set it a notch tighter, for instance, your upshift
rpms will go up a little and your shifts will be firmer.
If you back it off a notch, the opposite.
Many guys go up a notch.
After I installed my shift kit, I had to
go to around 40 lbs instead of the 33
to make the shifts firm and get the
upshift rpms right.
I just used a decent oil pressure gauge,
graduated with quite a bit of space between
the numbers so you can get a decently
accurate reading.
It's hard to get at - if you don't want to mess
with a gauge and all that, do like the above
post says and start out by just taking all the
slack out of the tv cable at idle - obviously
you've got to recheck that if you change your
idle setting. If it seems a little soft, go out
one notch and see how it acts.
Just FYI, here's a little info you can do to
help even a stock AOD live longer and
perform better even behind a stock motor.
(Using the first part of the info for
mild/moderate performance)
