You don't mention if you have checked or readjusted the kick down linkage. If out of adjustment it can cause band or clutch slippage (or harsh shifting)

And, No you won't be banned.
Gene didn't try to talk you into a C-4 conversion?? I do have a FOA sitting on my garage floor that came out of my '55. I sold the bell, air cooled converter and flex plate.

Not sure which case it is because it has cooling lines and a vauum modulator, suspect it is a FMX, starts out in low, shifts 2 more times.

As you know they are heavy, best to find one close to you. Shipping would kill you.
