Shift Improver Kits
seen them on summit and tpis, just wondering if anybody had it and if you noticed any difference. it's only 30 bucks, but do you think it's worth it?

I swear by the B&M kits. I have had two cars that I put them in. My 83 Crossfire Injected Z28 with no other mods but a Flowmaster would catch a mean second and sometimes third. Not for people with back or neck problems.

I put them in myself. I have no idea what a shop would charge.

I put one of the B&M transpacks in, and it took about three hours. I tried the full race settings, which were too harsh, so I went down to the street/strip version, which was perfect. The kit was put in at 20,000 miles, and the trans now has almost 100,000 on it, with no problems.

I have heard of problems with them over at thirdgen.org. Most people tend to use a transgo. Check out there tranny section over there and ask a guy named probuiltautomatics what he thinks about there shift improver kits.

transgo is the only way to go. I have the transgo reprogramming kit in mine and the thing shifts like a bitch. actually it shifts to hard at part throttle so I am going to put the junior accumulator in it. I have put B&M shift kits in 4 different TH350 and was extremely happy with them. The th350 kit is easy to put in. However the B&M kit for the 700R4 was not and I wasnt nearly as happy with it. IMO, let a shop put a shift kit in the 700R4. One of the things you can do first is put a vette servo in it and a bigger boost valve, like a .492 or .500. My buddy did that to his 90 bird with a 305TBI in it and the thing would chirp tires. Hope this helps.
