    My perspective: I look forward to your videos everyday. I am personally a 4 spd or 5 spd guy. I like having a 3rd pedal. However....I watched this whole video and learned something about automatics. I really didn’t know what the dump valve was or how it was used until now. In fact, it makes me even more interested in using an automatic for my next build. The way you make these videos, you make me feel like I am part of your family. Thank you for that! Your willingness to help people is outstanding and I value that. Keep on wrenching my friend!

    Well it doesn’t look like Vicky blacked your eye anymore lmao “joke” Bill there’s a lot of us that watch everything you put out to the end but I swear to goodness, just this evening I was sitting in my garage talking to a friend of mine asking how the dump valve system works. I was gonna get on line and do some research and I be damned if you didn’t put out a video. But I agree, we may not do things by the book or how other people do them, but we do the things we do the best we know how and either way we’re doing it we got the same goal, get it together and make sure it’s safe and working properly. My grandpa & my dad drilled into my head all my life, if your going to work on something or someone’s stuff do it right because if it’s worth your time doing it then do it right, take pride it what you do. But thanks you kinda gave me a crash course or what I was wondering about on the dump setup. Stay safe, stay Rona free and pray to got Trump gets elected because if not all the things we enjoy may come to an end. Thanks Old Man😝💯👍💯😝
