Default 3rd acculmator

Anyone ever block the 3rd acculmator? I figure the 3/4 clutchs would like this better?

The clutches might like it but the drum and snap ring probably won't. Also when this is done it has been my experience that coasting downshifts are more noticeable. I honestly do not see a reason to do this. Just tears up hard parts. Just an FYI a Fairbanks/superior servo does the same thing. It will remove the accumulation and also the cushioning springs. Do what you want but I say stick with the vet servo. Vince
