It would shift, just late and hard... it would be like having a high perf shift kit.There also is the detent rod that goes from the throttle linkage to the lever around the shift rod on the trans.

I know the E4OD is a pain as I have one myself; however if you do the right things to it and don't overwork it then it will do you ok.
The C6 will be stronger; however be prepared to spend about 15% to 30% more on fuel as you won't have the overdrive. You may also need a set of earplugs with the engine reving at 3,000+ rpm on the highway. For the guys who are used to it it probably is no big deal, but if you switch it might bug you for a while.

You mean the little linkage piece that bolts on the side of the main throttle lever - the one that attaches the "kickdown rod" to the throttle lever, right? At least that's what I think you mean - based on the way you describe it.
And yeah, fellro is right - you do need that too.....

if tranny is out i would invest in a new torqe converter not cheep but will save in the long run on that is made for rv or alittle stronger the converter is a real weak point in the e40d tranny also think about having it looked at by a rep tranny shop and have a good kit put in it
luck to ya
