Ok guys.. need your help here...

I just finished my H/C/I swap and now my AODE doesnt kick down... It was freshly rebuilt about 500 miles before the install of the top end, and worked perfectly.. now I have to manually shift it.. what gives? My anti-lock light is on and Im guessing its related to my camshaft not making enough vacuum to the booster.. but I thought the AODEs were all computer controlled.. Could the lack of vacuum cause this problem?


Also, for you nitrous guys out there.... what kind of base timing are you using on your stock short block HCI motors with a 125-150hp shot? Thanks :SNSign:

Nope, lack of vacuum has nothing to do with it - maybe a wire never got connected or is broken or is partially connected? Check all grounds too. Look espeicailly close at the TPS because it's signal is used by the tranny...
