    The hell were you doing with those check balls in the valve body anyway? I never figured that out.

    Shift Kit... When you open up the valve body to do the shift kit, they all basically fall out. You have to put them back in the right spot, drill out 3 holes in the valve body and change the springs on the accumulators as well.

    Shifts WAY better.

    The balls aren't too scary, it's the drilling that gets me. Haha.

    Oh, that was the easy part. The kit comes with the drill bit, and you're only enlarging holes that are already there.

    Shifts great. Only time the shift is kind of hard is when you're in stop/go traffic.

    Normal driving, it shifts way better than stock.
