is that called a manual valve body???
and have yall seen those dual gate shifters....on one side its normal thirdgen camaro shifter but then you can move it over and its like 4 3 2 1....what im wondering is if you put that on your car and go to the side that just has the numbers will it stay in 2nd like a manual valve body or does it still act like a regular auto shifter....i believe the shifter im talking about is called the dual gate2 shifter made by hurst...i couldnt find it on the web though?

For upshifting, as long as you don't wait too long, it won't hurt anything.
You will more than likely be slower doing this though.

Let the car downshift itself though.

That's what I'm planning for the near future

All this autoshifting reminds me of my first car, 91 CRX stock, I used to screw around with shifter all the time. Then when my uncle visits he says, no you should start out in this gear. And every so often on a trip, my dad likes to shift and I remind him, this ain't a manual!!! Good times.

I wasn't exactly a rice burner. My friend's who were just getting me started in cars were sitting across the table from me and said, your new exhaust is going to sound like a lawnmower--...yes. But I have to admit, not even an si and and thing had great power to weight ratio for a...90 hp? I'll tell you another thing, monte carlos pissed me off. It was even worse that I thought they were cadillacs ><
