shift kit replacement

HiFlow5 0 · 10-15-2001, 06:58 AM

when i had my tranny rebuilt the shop installed a B&M shift kit, but i think its set way too soft. i want to install a transgo cause i heard they work really well and will be able to chirp second (which i can't do now). what do i do to have to take out the old shift kit, and will it be easy?

best bet is to call Transgo and tell them the deal.

First thing you'll have to do is replace the 2-3 accumulator setup that the B&M kit sets up. There is only one mod in the VB it's self, I think it was the 2-3 boost valve, not sure tho. I had a previously installed B&M kit, that I replaced with a Transgo..I opted for a new vb, as the one I installed the transgo kit into, was the wrong calibration..Your VB is the FND calib, so you'll be ok, you'll just need to replace the valve that B&M replaces...I have 2 VB's, my stock 92, and the older. I enough parts to put the FND(92) back to stock that I was going to sell if your interested. let me know...Rob (gofastlx@yahoo.com)
