YEP ............THAT'S RIGHT ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION ED...............THE 
AUTOMATIC WITH IT'S TORQUE CONVERTER JUST KINDA DRONES ON IN THAT RPM RANGE. IT 
LOCKS THE CONVERTER UP AT ABOUT 48-50 MPH AND PART THROTTLE.........
 THE DRONE CONTINUES.....
ALSO THE FINAL GEAR BEHIND THE 6 SPEED IS ABOUT A 2.45:1....MY AUTOMATIC 
IS HIGHER AT 3.07:1 AND LOADS THE ENGINE A LITTLE HEAVIER ADDING "QUALITY"
TO THAT DRONING RESONANCE. A 6 SPEED IS A LOT HANDIER IN CONTROLLING ENGINE 
LOAD AND RPM. 
AS FAR AS THE RESONATOR IS CONCERNED, I CAN ONLY IMAGINE HOW BAD THE 
RESONANCE WOULD BE WITHOUT IT.
just realized my capital letters were on. sorry didn't mean to raise my voice 
that way.
thanks for the come back
