I'm after installing my converter and shift kit but I've noticed the 1st to 2nd shift isn't as smooth as it used to be. I have an automatic. When she swithces gears there's a noticable jolt. Whats the problem? Thanks

No, I know what a shift kit is and what it does but what I didn't realize is that it would make such a big difference!2001 FirebirdW68<br /><br />Whisper Lid; SLP CAI w/K & N, Flowmaster Am.

How many washers did you install in the 1-2 accumulator?<a href=\"http://www.onid.orst.edu/~waltejam/\" target=\"_blank\">98 Bright Red Camaro</a><br />Too many mods to list....check my websiteComment

Ohhhh!! The famous washers. I am glad I found out about the washers just before I had my shift kit installed. I installed two (stage 2). [img]smile.gif[/img]

No, but I had a mechanic install it and he was familiar with shift kits. So this jolt is normal then?2001 FirebirdW68<br /><br />Whisper Lid; SLP CAI w/K & N, Flowmaster Am.

ok yea the washers... i went to tranny shop to ask him about the TCC valve fix. and was asking him that since hes alreayd working on it if he would be able to install a shift kit and vette servo. and he said that i shouldnt bother with that and install springs or something i dunno what he was talking about.. but whats with the washers i wonder if he would know about them.99\' W68 Firebird<br />SLP Ram air kit,Whisper Air Lid, k&n, 8mm Taylor Wires, Bridgestone Potenzas RE950, BMR Red LCAs, Pacesetter Headers and 3\"in catalytic converter with 2.75\" Flowmaster Cat-back<br /><br /> <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/501008\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/501008</a>Comment
