 how does it run when you first start it up in the morning? >>

This is my slip
R/T		.832
60'		2.83
330		7.6
1/8		11.63
mph	63
1000	14.9
1/4		17.7
mph	80.42

That was my slip. I just don't know.  The car starts up on the second 
rotation of the starter every day. It does have a slight misfire at Idle when 
it is cold but when its warm the Idle is steady at 900Rpm.  It feels like it 
pulls real strong.  But come to think of it, It does not seem as strong at 
full temp. then when it is cold. It feels great up to about 6,000rpm, then it 
just makes a lot of noise, and seems to die off. First gear is great, puts a 
good smile on my face. Second gear is much less pleasing though. I know it is 
hard to diagnose like this but whatdaya think?

P,S.  My flex joint on the downpipe is leaking a little too.
