I have a TCI trans and 3.55`s and the overdrive kicks in around 50 mph. I think if you put 4.11`s in , yours in overdrive would run like mine does in 3rd,which aint bad unless you like to drive @ 75 for long distance`s. The vb sounds like a good thing to prevent trany problems.

OK.. sounds like it might be an OK idea but really not necessary, you still have to connect the TV cable and it's really not much trouble to set it up right.
