oh, and at true 70mph (nearly 80mph on the dash), the 2.3 auto is at 3k rpm.

Lock up should occur at approx 45mph.. If you drive along at steady acceleration ( NOT harsh ) and watch the revs you will see them drop by about 500 when lock up occurs at 45ish.mph... If you accelerate hard it doesn't happen.
