My FTVB was one of the best mods next to the S/C that i have installed. However i don't know if i would run it with the shifts firmed with a chip.

I have a single cab, so a little less weight. Anyway, the shifts are awesome with the FTVB. I also have the superchip micro tuner, and the two produce nice quick shifts. At slow speeds, it just seems to change gears really fast. Not that hard, just fast and to the point. At WOT, they shift hard also, and you can feel the shift a lot more. The back end will move around when it shifts on my truck.

Its the best mod I've ever done. I catch my self trying to find a chance to go from 0-50mph as much as I can.

72 mustang, sorry I just now getting back to this post.

My Micro Tuner is set on medium shifts right now. Its between Min and Max, and seems to work good that way.

Oh, check out http://www.fearsomefour.com/forums 72 mustang, we are getting a lot more Oklahoma truck people and are planning a Thunder Valley meet November 21st. Check it out, it would be great to have you along.


And I wish it were an L, only put the L wheels on my normal 4.6...
