Thanks for the reply.

Yeah, I end up shifting around 6000 rpm on the stock tach. Really, I wait until it revs between 5000 and 5500 to throw the lever, and by the time it shifts, it's generally around 6000.

I know it's got more in it...it pulls well past 6000 on the stock tach, but if I go any higher, the psycho tranny likes to hang onto the gear and I end up hitting the rev-limiter.

I know the motor's got a lot more in it than I can get out right now. I'm waiting for this tranny to die and then looking towards a C-4. I've toyed with the idea of a T-5 swap, but I don't know if I'll go that route. I learned to drive in a stick, but the AOD's got me spoiled.
