Sounds like you want more of a driver. If so then at least think about switching to a 200R auto overdrive trans at the same time. If you are like me and every thing else you drive has that extra gear, you sure will enjoy it more. Depending upon what mods where performed to your frame to install TH350, it might be fairly easy.

I tried rubber isolators between the frame and pump, but it made little difference. I don't mind spinning the motor over to refill the carb(s), it allows time to build oil pressure, jmho..
