Here you go
http://www.transgoperformance.com/faq.html

Im selling one for $85 shipped if your interested. The thing is unopened. I got it a few months back and now im actually not going to end up needing one because im getting a brand new built transmission with one already installed.

Just don't get the electric ones they actually hurt the tranny from what I've read. I went with a B&M shift kit that requires you to drop the tranny pan and valve body. I had to drill holes in 2 locations on the separator plate and plug one location. It's not hard to do my kit was supplied with a template and drill bit. Also you have to take some springs out of the accumulator, I think, and put spacers in. Most people run 2 spacers I decided to take all the springs out of mine.
When driving easy my car chirps 2nd everytime, i cannot put a drink in the drink holder anymore.

Exactly zero good tranny builders will recommend the B&M kit for this tranny the Transgo is the OVERWHELMING favorite of sucessful 4L60E builders. The B&M only bosts line pressure which feels good but does nothing to correct inherent flaws in the tranny the way the Transgo does.

Agreed. TransGo is the way to go. Everyone that is selling BUILT transmissions that actually last are using TransGo.
