Silver, is it easy to remove the PCM from the firewall? Turns out I've got a jet plug in mine that I want to remove to see if it will affect my pinging. Ash I believe it was sent me the website from jet explaining how to do it but just curious. It doesn't affect any computer information right? Like the odometer, etc.

Can you explain how the TC lock up hurts acceleration?

The TC locking up hurts acceleration because you loose the torque multiplication provided by the torque converter once it locks. It should not lock up until shortly after you're in OD ... unless you have selected "OD OFF" ... then it should lock up in 3rd.

Yup ... straight out of the FSM:
The torque converter clutch is controlled by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The torque converter clutch engages in fourth gear, and in third gear under various conditions, such as when the O/D switch is OFF, when the vehicle is cruising on a level surface after the vehicle has warmed up. The torque converter clutch will disengage momentarily when an increase in engine load is sensed by the PCM, such as when the vehicle begins to go uphill or the throttle pressure is increased.
EDIT: Of course, I've found glaring errors in the FSM before ...
The button (on the end of your gear selector) is an OD DEFEAT switch. Pressing it turns OD off and the light in your cluster should reflect this.
