It takes alot of air to move the tranny back enough to disengage the input shaft splines on the axles so the wheels are disengaged to ease up on the torque so my N2O assited shifters can move the tranny over into 2nd gear. But since all my linkages isnt hooked up i just start with 12 inch tall tires for first and when I want second I get out and move up to 22 inch front tires, for second. Then since i have a close ratio 3rd gear the tires are only 27 inch tall. I love my overdrive, I get great gas mileage with my 44 inch swamppers on the front. 120MPH at a RCH above idle speed.

No, that was on the GTO's starting in 1970 or 1971. Only lasted a year or two in production.
