there is no break-in on the torque converter. there will be a break-in after shift kit is installed. by the time you drive home it should be done.

So I should wait to "get on it" until I've driven it 50 miles or so?

flog it soon as you leave the shop the break-in is just the clutches getting used to more pressure and harder bite. it will probably shift more firm by the time you get home.

I am not looking for a hot rod, I am a boat dealer and the biggest load I tow is a 22 foot Ranger bass boat or a 28 foot pontoon, not a lot weight. I am looking for the mileage increase. www.theboatshopinc.com

Geraman, I'm from Orange County. Can you recommend some people down here that really know the Excursion and the 7.3s? I would like to be able to buy chips exhaust and trans mods that are needed to up my towing power and cruise in general. I can do most mods myself but not tranny stuff! Thanks, Greg
