Default Carbwap problems

I have the 360 magnum in my truck, carb swapped it, and the transmission is not shifting right. What do I need to do?

Your trans was computer controlled. When you pulled all that off the motor doing the carb swap, the PCM now is either no longer there, or, no longer has the data it needs to run the trans. You won't get TCC lockup, or O/D either. So far as I know, there is no way to fool the PCM into thinking it is actually running an engine, so it will deal with the trans. You can go back to fuel injection, swap in an older trans, or, switch it to manual. Those are your only choices.

It would be easier than the RE, just need to figger out a way to get O/D, and TCC lockup. So far as I know, there isn't an aftermarket solution for that.

Do a little research on this before buying it, They have different psi pressure switches so make sure you get the correct one you need.
