The trans shifts up and down smoothly... even into the low 7K rpm range. I'm very happy with the transmission.

Thanks for the feedback Dale. I'm pretty sure I did not use that particular fluid in mine. I think I went with a non-synthetic by Valvoline. I'll try the Mobil 1 next time I get around to tinkering with the car and see if it helps. Not really much of an issue for me so it might not be anytime soon.
