Depends on rear gear and transmission gear set. 4.11:1 or lower and a 29 tooth gear set, pulling away in second non overdrive with a light car ain't to bad. If the car/pickup is heavy or loaded with folk and stuff, the use first.
You shouldn't use, and shouldn't be able to use overdrive in first gear.
Common sence should be used here, leave the factory controls in place, and use it as it was designed to be used, all will be well,
