I need to re-phasewhat i said

With a TH400 when a transbrake is installed you remove the front band, when you go past the lights @ 8,000rpm is the pull down {engine braking} gonna hurt the engine or is it enough to make a difference? If it is harmfull @ 8,000rpm what is best too do?

I dont really want to go with that clean Nuetral brake but,,,,,,
