only time ive ever had issues with that is when i tried lifting the back of the motor using the trans pan. that was many yrs ago, learned to put a piece of plywood between the pan and jack for doing that.

Yes.

And I was going to mention having a piece of wood on the jack too. But, the best method is a jack that's built for transmissions. Those make it much easier.

It will work in a 94 z? Thanks only reason I was questioning is because someone told me 94 was a stand a lone year and on those trannys there were some sort or external solenoid that tells the car to downshift otherwise the ecm wouldn't recognize it and you would have to turn the car off and restart it to reset the ecm
