Shift Kit install
Hey, im going to buy a transgo shift kit, and basicly i want to know if the install is difficult ( im a stupid 18 yr old ), or if i should just pay someone to do it. And if i decided to pay someone, about how much should it cost? Thanks

RE: Shift Kit install
waste of money save another 200 and get a lentech valve body that drops right in... your better off getting a great kit and one that'll last rather than drilling and messing around, just my opinion but the lentech automatics are the way to go

7UP....tell us more about the Lentech. I was going to do transgo as well since I heard B&M was not the best............but if Lentech is better than oh well. Why is so much better? 200.00 more right? Is it a manual valve body? Curious......................

RE: Shift Kit install
Here's the website, http://www.lentechautomatics.com/ , the street cruiser VB is 250.00 and that's what I'm going to go with after I get my stall in a couple of weeks. From what I've heard, it will allow you to hold 1st (like usual in the 1 position), hold 2nd (in the D position), and 3/4 in OD (it won't go into over drive anyways if you are at WOT, so there's really no need for an electric overdrive delete). It'll let you bang through the gears while still giving you the rock hard shifts that a transgo shift kit will have.

RE: Shift Kit install
Man thats the deal.........I have a AOD-E but my comp. control is out so it shifts funky (early moslty). One of the kits says NO electronics so that would help me by pass that crap and save about 250.00 letting the dealer replace the module! Thanks for website 92LX.............Let me know how yours goes......
