Phil. I use a coupler from TCI. We have used them on roundy round cars
for years with no problems. If you want to you can rig up a valve to
dump line pressure. Hook it up to a clutch pedal and start from a stop,
but I don't like to do it. Seems hard on the trans to me.
                just another doug
