This really oughtta be in the Transmission section, perhaps as a sticky, no?

I'll be interested to see the TSBs as listed on the table of contents page if/when you post them.

Meanwhile, '67 wasn't quite the start of part-throttle downshift on Torqueflites; that actually came as a production test run in '66 as documented here.

And speaking of TSBs:

Governor noise on '66 904s—I had an original unrebuilt '66 904 in the '90s that worked fine but made this irritating noise.

Increased WOT upshift speeds on 904s and 727s, early '66

Cushioned clutch for smoother neutral-to-drive engagement on Slant-6 904s, early '66

• Always check to make sure you don't have any screws loose!

• Real cold out? Shift your Torqueflite to Neutral before starting the engine…

• …unless yours is a Torqueflite made after this round of changes, then go ahead and start in Park.

• Looks like a number of small-nose torque converters and associated transmissions escaped their Canadian cage in 1972 (assuming the smaller nose described is the same small nose as the '67-down item).
