If your tranny has some miles on it, you may want to consider a rebuild. I threw a converter and shift kit in mine, I already had a cooler. It lasted one day, clutch packs went out. That turned out to be a costly chance I took.

10. Yank Performance Converters can achieve maximum performance and efficiency without the use of shift kits. Shift kits dramatically raise transmission line pressure to increase shift firmness. Increased shift firmness will not increase performance, but create unnecessary stress on the transmission and other drive-line components. .

Hmm... Lets see what Yank has to say about shift kits on their website, and BTW, Vigilante says the same thing.

It's Not Vigilante it is Precision Industries
and these internet magasine racers kill me cough burnzilla cough......im pretty sure his car is nere stock and has no aftermarkwt stall...
any one that spends upwards of 5oo on a stall and doesnt touch the tranny or atleast add a cooler is wasting money IMO....ive got a tci 30kgvr cooler and i use an hpp3 to increase line pressure.....

Yes adding and 800 dollar plus stall to a stock trans is like stepping backwards sure you will hav fun a little bit with the converter then you will end up buying it again plus a trans, Thats why I promote buying them at the same time
