The transmission controls then make hydraulic adjustments to assure the key shift parameters approach the ideal shift profile the next time the shift is made for similar operating conditions of vehicle rpm, engine load, and road load conditions.
Because the transmission is electronically controlled and there is no mechanical linkage that needs to be moved for a pre-select downshift, implementation of this feature can be done completely in software with no hardware modifications.
This integration is necessary so that the transmission can alter its shift characteristics to maximize the exhaust brake's effectiveness and not adversely affect transmission operation when the exhaust brake is not in use.

Allison also states that by using their Transynd synthetic transmission fluid, drains of up to 150,000 miles are allowed due to the formulation.
I chose to overfill the transmission by 4 qts because there are about 4 qts left in the system (torque converter, cooler and lines) that need to be flushed out.
