Oop's didn't realize you had an auto...I see you have a tuner too, did you adjust your shift points?

Shift points are to low for a cammed Auto. Also a 3.73 is a poor gear for a cammed Auto.

What would you expect the shift points to be for a cammed auto JayC? Also what rear gear would you suggest for his setup?
