Well, the first time I noticed it is when my friend was driving it around and he was reving it up alot. When the tranny gets hot does it tend to slip? If not what could be causing this problem.

Another question is I want to put a transmission temp gauge on it.
Can I do so on a 420a?

Another thing too is I'm breaking down my transmisson this weekend because i need to fix something with the speed gear. what is it called on the inside of the tranny where the speedo gear connects to. No its not my sensor gear that is broken. I have stuck my finger in their and felt that the gear on the inside of the tranny is pushed back. Anyone have a breakdown they can give me and part name? Or just tell me the part name because I have on demand online and I can look at it on their. Please and thank you.
 
Check the fluid level, Otherwise you clutch disc packs are fried. You'd need to rebuild the transmission to fix it.
