      to "blip" the throttle during downshifts to match eng. rpm with trans. rpm to ease the transition of a dowshift during cornering, thus making it a "heel-toe" downshift.

      awesome vid by the way.
      72 Nova SS, on the back burner for now.

      '70 Impala 4drht, 26K original miles, 2" drop springs and large swaybars, drives pretty good for a land yahct in the middle of an ls1 swap, but thinking about changing directions to a duramax diesel swap.
