Re: tranny ?

the real bad thing about the 700r4 is that it has small clutch packs, and with smaller clutch packs things breakdow quicker, expecialy when the trans has been abused, but you said it still shifted fine, so if your concerned about it put another aux. trans cooler on the car the cooler you keep it the longer it will last!
