Slipped once in the morning, went home that afternoon, slipped a little then was gone, no noise no nothing, loast all the gears but first and reverse, anything above 2k and it just revs up..... RPM's had a mind of there own, every now and then Id take my foot off the gas (had to run at 5k to get 50mph) and they would drop then go back up then drop.

You only did 5k at 50 mph? Holy ****. My 3.1 would be doing 5k at maybe 30 or 35 on 235 60 15 tires...

But damn man...that's some **** right there...

Wow... Maybe my car was just really out of whack. Lol, I swear, everyone else I talk to about the 700-R4...they basically say things that make no sense at all to me. I'm beginning to think that the tranny in my Camaro wasn't the same, because all of the gear ratios are way out of line with what everyone else says in terms of my rpms and speed in each gear...
