more c4 ?'s

[66StangGuy]

when i bought my mustang i found that the engine was an 85 block so im guessing the tranny may have ben changed as well.

Im pretty sure its a c4 though but id like to know the year. can anyone tell me where i can find the code on the tranny?

also what should i set the bands to? Right now there at stock settings according to my shop manual. 1 1/2 turns i think it was.
if its the orignal trans it has about 80,000 miles on it. Also i think im getting a lot of tranny slip from somewhere. When im on the freeway and at 5,000 rpm im going about 80-85 but i have 2.80 gears so shouldnt i go a lot faster at that rpm? What could be causing the slip and would it be related to the bands?

Also exactly does the kickdown lever do? when i set it to go about half throttle it wont downshift but i get a lot more power and throttle response and i thought it just tightend the bands?

sorry im making this so long. thanks for anyones help
