Better shifts from the original shift-kit guys.
TransGo's Performance shift kits give you the hard-launching, tire-blazing shifts you want, after just a few hours' work with basic hand tools. TransGo even has kits for computer-controlled 4-speed automatics. Their performance shift kits can be installed with the transmission in the vehicle, and they come with complete instructions and a step-by-step video to walk you through the installation process.

ok ty that is 1 answer anyone else have an opion or is transgo the way to go?
also what kind of difference will i notice with shifting of tranny? and other things of that nature?
also is this transgo better then the 1 first listed?
You're bidding on a NEW Transgo P/N AOD-HP shift kit. This kit has two stages of performance from Heavy Duty for mild shifts to Full Race for tire burning shifts. With either stage, you'll be able to hold all gears to any RPM, including full throttle shifts into overdrive. This kit also includes the optional Hi-Rev Governor kit, which will allow your transmission to have higher RPM automatic shifts. Along with the increased performance from you vehicle, you will also see an increase in the life of your transmission due to the reduced slippage. This is the most complete shift kit available and definitely the most reputable. All parts and gaskets are included, no special tools required. Retail price is $149. Buyer to pay insured shipping of $9. Please note that this shift kit will work in any AOD from 1980 through 1993. Please look at my other auctions and new eBay Store for great deals on torque converters and other transmission parts. I have a few nice upgrades that can only be found in my Store. Purchase a shift kit and torque converter, get free shipping on the shift kit.

mine will be installed next week along with some 3.73's. Should make a HUGE difference. My buddy just got a shift kit put into his and it rocks. Shift are much stiffer and you dont just "coast" into gear. Will let you guys know when it installed into mine.
