On my older engine with Edelbrock, Hei, I have about a 300 rpm drop when I put into gear. Friend of mine and I were talking transmissions one day and he mentions if you have anything over that amount that the transmission is old and worn. We were looking at the problem from a mileage standpoint.

Good pointers from the other posters.
