What did you do to your car today?

TC still locks up in 3rd under any throttle %, lag on the top of the 1-2 shift is still there.

I had the car dyno tuned, basically full exhaust and 4.10 gears (around $1500) all done since my last run at the track for 13.72 with my drag radials and 3.55 gears. So with all that stuff done I go from 13.72 to 13.63 and pick up 1 mph even with my drag radials on.

I've gone through several new tunes from Zack and he can't figure it out why it keeps doing it when there is no reason for it to be doing it.

I'm getting to the point that I'm ready to drive to whoever to get this problem taken care of. All I want is for the converter to lock and stay lock only in 4th (OD) and no shift lag.

JDM engineering does mail order tunes. You can give them a call 732 780-0770. They worked out my transmission issues and will send you a good tune for all your mods. My lock-up comes in around 58mph like I had it before and they eliminated the annoying unlock and lock when I would take my foot off the gas. You could even ask them for the same trans schedule I have since they know me over there. Jim Jr answers the phone and can answer your questions and get you set up.

Maybe I'll give them a ring on Friday when I have some time to myself and not working.

Once I get this taken care of and the trans leaks/Jmod done the car will be back to flawlessly running and I've only got 3 more Sundays left of the opening race season at the track.
 
Currently at Hollywood Lincoln Mercury for an oil change and mechanic pointed out :
Oil pan screw is bad
Rear axle transmission leak
Air filter is horrible
Fog light needs replacement (which I already knew)
 
Scraped and sanded the rust off the bottom of the door jambs on the driver's side. Passenger side doors are fine. Wierd.
Primed and painted.
