For you my concern would be your transmission's ability to survive EOC in neutral. Most autos require that the input shaft be powered by the engine to run the fluid pump to circulate ATF for lubrication and cooling. My 5spd manual spins gears in a bath of motor oil and ropes/splashes itself lubed. That's a world of difference right there...I would neutral-coast in an auto (most pumps turn in N but not P btw) but only EOC in a manual.

I got a electrical AUX pump
i have ran it for miles in neutral boosted the mpg of this old tired v8 rig to 27mpg the AUX pumps are cheap if they go out i also got a working spare too super easy to replace as it's external to the transmission and runs off of 12VDC (which is converted to 14vAC 3 phase)
