Shift Kit Owners, chime in. I see the W body Store and Transgo, along with another I saw on Ebay. Is the trango worth it for the extra money? Any information would be nice. I know there aren't a ton of people with them but it's something I'm seriously looking into.

Give me a week and i can have your answer, as the cars in the shop. From what the guy told me thats working on my car, you might as well do everything that you want done to your tranny at once rather then pay multiple times to have it rebuilt.

I have no doubt they make a quality product, it just looks like the only difference in that kit and Wbody's is that the transgo includes that spring. Then W body store's has the filter with it too.

The TransGo spring is harder than the factory one and it also comes with spacers too. I used just the spacers before and there was just a negligible difference over stock. That e-bay kit really deosn't describe what it comes with except a hardened boost valve. I think the boost valve is on the side of the valve body in which you need to take the side cover off to get to. With the shift kit all you do is drop the trans. pan and take the accumulator out and replace everything. It's pretty easy. Def. a good mod.

Get your stuff through TEP. He really knows his $hit! He is very easy to deal with too. He answers every question you throw at him. Dave is a cool $hit.
