    under transmission section;

    under the four shift tables, performance, cruise, hot, normal;

    You didn't mention tps angle so that has a lot to do with it. Since you don't want it to go into OD until 50mph, I'd start with 6% tps and add across the entire row until that value at 6% is 50mph.

    so on the 3-4 upshift you have 50mph @ 6%, then 12% @ 52, then 18% @ 55, etc, you get the idea.

    hope this helps.

    well got the truck back to night and let me tell you. i have never had a truck sit you back in the seat at 75 mph, and then kick like a mule shifting into 3rd , and also into OD . pulls real good thru the 1-2 shift. all in all i am happy, still need to do a little tweekin but that will happen when i get back from thunder shootout.
