The transmission was a stock rebuild for a mid 80 Monte Carlo, its been so long since i drove the v8 i dont remember but I would say it shifted WOT around 5200 or so. Once I get my mount figured out and line pressures good ill look into adjusting the governer.

I dont have a progressive timing retard but my Digital 6 does have an on demand timing retard for Nitrous I was contemplating using a hobbs switch to activate it and just pull out x ammount of timing all at once when boost hits. I am running a MSD Blaster 2 coil, all the stuff from my mid 12sec v8
