i just orderd the TCI SSF 3500 nd the flexplate and will be installing it this week or next but i see alot of people talking about a trany cooler and a shift kit should i put that stuff on as well or does it realy matter i dont know much about that stuff so i just wanted to ask people who do also if i do put that stuff on will i need to pull the trany again?

 

A shift kit and/or trans cooler can be installed without pulling the transmission. Trans cooler might be a good idea. You can put the converter in and then decide if you want the shift kit if you wanted. I liked what the shift kit did for my car after I had the converter in it, but my stock trans pump got nuked shortly after and I changed to an aftermarket trans.

 

The tranny cooler is a "must". Its cheap insurance, I ran a 3200 stall on by SS with no shift kit and i was happy with the results!
