ON SECOND THOUGHT **** that... i just read a review that says the SLP ones suck. all they do is raise the line pressure and they CANNOT be switched on and off.

 

ya im thinking about getting the Trans Go kit since people are saying they are the best for the lt1's

 

Ive been thinking about it for a while and i think that im gonna get the b&m electronic, mostly just because I dont really want to mess with taking out my tranny. Does anybody know if the electronic ones are bad for any reason?

here is a link to the shift kit:

I haven't heard anything bad, and for $50 and not having to open up the transmission it sounds like it would be worth a try.

Poison: watch the language buddy, we know you're better than that!

 

actually i heard the b&m ones raise pressure too, so i guess im just gonna get the transgo hd-2 kit, and have my friend whos a mechanic help me. But i hear that thiers different settings? like a 1, 2 and 3 depending on how hard you want your shifts to be? which one would you recoment for mostly street? and what would be a disadvantage of all of them. And how much will i notice it?i know that was really long post with a lot of questions

 

cant you just get your computer tuned to improve the shifts. LT1runner did the PCMforless deal and he said he had crisper shifts.

 

Yes you can. There are a few tables you can change in the PCM. Shift pressure, shift speed, shift points (mph and/or rpm), and a couple others.

 

I thought about doing that but i think im gonna go with the transgo kit still, ill let you guys know how it goes when i get it installed

 

The car feels like it has a shift kit in it now with the tuning!! THE CAR SLAMS YOU INTO SECOND WITH AUTHORITY!! I can't say enough good things about it! Now to mention the power gains!! Next time I do a tune it's going to be PCMforless all the way.

 

the tuned shiftkits will definitly be noticable. However they cannot quite achieve the degree of firmness as the mechanical ones. at least that is my understanding anyways. personally I would do the tune, because its not much behind the fully installed ones and its much less PITA
