Umm for those of us with enquiring minds, what the heck is a FTVB?

And jerry mod is simply talking your valve body apart and drilling holes in the separator plate to make the fluid move faster

i think dirtyd0g would give u the answer ur lookin for. But ill tell you what he says about these transmissions. He pretty much says they are pretty stout out of the box, and is probably one of the best transmissions ford puts out. And asinatra, you DO NOT JMOD A TRUCK VALVEBODY! If u do a search you see why. IF you want to jmod a truck trans, buy a new mustang valvebody and jmod it, but dont jmod a truck valvebody. I dont believe they put the 4r75e in any of the cars.

ur right. Our trucks have this also! If you shift into reverse as your going down the road, the truck will just coust to a stop. I did this ONCE unpurpose, so don't worry about if you shift into reverse accidently, just switch it back to drive.

j/k T-man
under heavy use(aka racing on "sticky" tires) my tranny will start to slip. It has got to the point now where if i have my shift point at 5100, and my limter at 5600, it will hit rev limiter. Not acceptable
So i'm taking it out, do a few little tricks of the trade, take a pair of pliars to the TC, maybe add a few clutches and see what happens. I would like to be able to chirp every gear, no matter what throttle pressure
Not sure how this tranny will react though.
