<VV> Powerglide Shifting Issues (getting better)

[J R Read]

Frankly, I'm skeptical of "trans in a can" and suspect that not too far down 
the road things will go wrong and you will then discover that the magic 
potion has now made the tranny unrepairable.  If it bought you a little time 
and that is all you were looking for, well - so be it.

Later, JR
