B&M SHift Improver Kit

Well, I decided to go ahead any try the B&M kit just for giggles. I put it on heavy duty mode, with some different spacers and a stiffer spring in the 1-2 accumulator. I am happy to say that now 150 miles later, the car shifts ever strong and firm. I was expecting to have much harder shifts, but they are actually faster and only slightly harder, although you can feel them much more. After reading some threads on here, I did not install the line bias blocker either, as to spare myself a new tranny. I know that most people on here are Transgo fans, but I was just letting people that B&M ain't all that bad, espcially for the price. Also, I filled the tranny with some regular tranny fluid, and 1 quart of Hurst Hot Shift Full Synthetic.

Just had it done myself, and so far the shifts have been firm, but not neck snapping. All in all its just an improver kit, and guess what??? My Haynes Transmission overhaul book recomends that exact same kit.
