Those with Transgo Shift Kit I am installing a TCI 3000 and am wondering what kind of results you all have gotten from using 2 or 3 washers in the 2nd accumulator? Thanks guys.

Re: Those with Transgo Shift Kit I use 3 washers in mine. Because my PT4200 is so loose, the 1-2 shift firmness is really not too firm. 3 washers is definitely the way to go with a big converter. With a converter that is not what is considered really big, you could try 2 and see what happens. It's not too hard to pull the accumulator and add the 3rd washer if you want to try it.

Re: Those with Transgo Shift Kit I just stuck a TransGo gold(0.056") in mine. Is that the shim you're using and is it the same dimension?
By adding shims: you lessen the volume of the accumulator, which in turn speeds up the band apply time. So the smaller the accumulator reservoir, the faster the band applies.

Re: Those with Transgo Shift Kit Go with 3. Its snappy, and it will tip drinks over. 1-2 shift feels completly different, no hesitation at all. Although I'm not sure about e.t.'s I'd say at least a tenth in my case (slow truck)
