Problem with my th-350

Alright. its shifting at 4300 which is way below what i want. so i started shiftin it manually. i got a b&m mega shifter. and when i run i shift it at about 5200. i got my best time with that rpm.

when i shift it i just leave my foot on the floor. i dont let off. is this gunna screw up my tranny. i know th-350s are pretty tough. but as long as it doesn't totally destroy it im good.

anyone have any experience with this.? any suggestions?

or how do i change it so it shifts at 5200 instead of 4300. thankyou.

I run manual valve bodies on all of my TH-350's and shift at about 7200 rpm. If the transmission is in good shape you will not hurt it. To get your automatic shift points up you might want to look into changing the valve body (or modifying it yourself). ATI sells street/strip valve bodies for about $120.00 (353100).
