Any thoughts on the above?

PLUS...1992 has 3 cats. 1993 has how many? 1994-1997 have 2 cats, right? I'm a bit confused about the exhaust system in these cars.

The top silver part of my engine, where the six intake (?) bumps are, one of them has a little dent in it. Normal?

The manual button on my transmission doesn't work. Does anyone else have this problem?

Isn't the top engine speed of the SVX 7,000 RPM? My rev limiter cuts in rather abruptly at 6,500 RPM, and all my shifts with my foot down, even while in power mode, happen at 6,100 RPM. Why? Is this a tranny thing?

Could the last two be tranny specific, thanks to a bad rebuild? Could my weird tranny be causing my bad gas mileage?

Thanks in advance!
