Just to add to the good advice given, if that trans has a 5.0 front band lever, take it out and put a 3.8 or 4.2 ratio lever in.
yeah, that 5.0 lever is a killer. anything you can do to speed up the release of the intermediate band, is going to make it easier to nail down the 2-3 shift timing. a billet servo with heavy duty release springs is a good step. --------------------------------------------------
I too put that 5.0 lever in my trans thinking it would make it a "killer shifting, tire chirping machine" It did that very thing where it bogged down going into 3rd gear, it just didnt shift right. I asked on here and was told to take that 5.0 lever back out and put in a 3.8. I did and it was perfect Then I cranked up my line pressure about 4 more turns and it shifts super. The best shifting mopar trans I've EVER had.

You are correct about the 5.0 lever. My dart has it in there and it shifts like that . trans is now 7 years old and never had a issue with it. Still shifts hard! That is the symptom you will get with a 5.0 lever. When you have it on the jack stands running , its more obvious .Nothing to worry about ! Darty
