I have now swapped it out for a rebuilt J-type from John Esposito at Quantum Mechanics. Though the "new" transmission is now installed (with necessary modifications to the rear mounting bracket) mechanically, I have a few questions. I am wondering if anyone else has changed from an A-type to a J-type. Among my questions is: Since the J-type uses no overdrive relay, what does one do with the wires that are presently connected to the OD relay my A-type needed? Also, since the A-type functions in 2nd, 3rd and fourth and the J-type only in 3rd and fourth, what happens with the "extra" wires at the interlock switches there?</div><div style="font-family:comic sans ms, sans-serif;font-size:large;color:#000099;" class="ydp6a6ff42fyiv4500032040gmail_default"><br></div><div style="font-family:comic sans ms, sans-serif;font-size:large;color:#000099;" class="ydp6a6ff42fyiv4500032040gmail_default">Yes, I have Dan Masters' book...
