Up date. Well after fighting a no shift from 3ed to 4th at WOT, the trans shop got it fixed. It was the speed sensor. All is good now. I have to go back in 2 weeks for a free check up.
Already doing WOT. You just got it back a couple of weeks ago. :dunno:

LOL, well, LOL. I asked the transmission shop owner if it was ok, after I told Him that I have a lead foot. I said, do I need to give it a brake in period, and He said, dont pull any thing with it, or dont go to the drag race track and make 30 passes with it. Other than that, you can drive it like you stole it. He said, come back in 2 weeks, and He will check it out then. After that, I can pull anything I want to, and do all the hard launches I want to with it. All this with a 2 year, 24,000 mile warranty. He said, the way He builds them, it will hold what ever you throw at it with less than 500 HP. At 600 HP, your pushing the limit of what it can hold. He would do a different build for that kind of power. So yesterday when I left with it I asked, so do I come back in 2 weeks. He said yes, unless you see something obvious, like a leak or if it starts acting up again. If so come back before, other than that, I will see you in 2 weeks. The shop owner also said that He doesnt like to drive a coustomers vehicle at WOT incase something happens. If you drive your own vehicle like that, and wreck it, or blow the engine, than thats on you. I only drove your truck like that because you said it was ok, (and I did), and just to find and fix the problem. I stand behind my work, so you can drive it any way you want to. I dont like to drive anybody elses vehicle like that, unless there is an issue, and the customer gives me his permission, and even then, I still will only drive like that as little as I need to so I can fix the issue.
