Ok, so this got me thinking. To all ye old timers (on EM), is there a single set of 'SPECIFIC to automatic transmissions' threads for modding and driving techniques where DFCO, kill switches, DWL, DWB, TC lockup mods, or even the idea listed above of setting cruise artificially low to force DFCO etc.???

Stuck with my 4 speed auto just in my Chevy just as a lot of American OEM owners are right now such as you Ram owners.

I know enough not to key off while in drive, but I want to know more about what has been done with success that the OP was getting at as well.

Thanks all - Sean
