in stock form a 700r4 will not go into or stay in overdrive at full throttle, i believe all you get is approximately 1/3 throttle, or a little more before it either kicks down or just doesn't upshift. its a gm factory way of keeping speed freaks from killing themselves as often

I heard having the valves opended up abit...(fluid holes bigger) will give better shifts, rather than shift kits which are
