call John Woods http://jwtt.com/or Brian Thompson www.brianstruckshop.com
and ask about the bypass delete. Off the top of my head, I remeber reading that it is not a good idea to delete this pipe, just cant remember why.

I rebuilt my trans about 2 months ago and reinstalled the bypass line, after cleaning it. I felt that "hot oil is better than no oil" if one of the coolers got restricted. Sounds like your trans has the '.500" race version' of the line modulator vave. Mine has the .427 diameter plunger (HD version) and shifts hard enough to bark tires also, but shifts smooth but firm at light-to-moderate throttle. There was a post on how to check the bypass line and coolers for a restriction. You may have search for it, if someone doesn't chime in.
