the link doesn't bring me to the right place. But a valve body isnt just a bolt on, you'd either need to know what you're doing or have it worked on. And if your going to drop the tranny might as well do the ever so recommended j-mod which has modifications for the valve body also. Some shift kits don't even require you to drop the tranny, but either way it'll cause more heat w/ faster/harder shifts and you NEED a tranny cooler asap, our trannys cant exchange heat for a damn.

the j-mod, i didn't go w/ it but it's highly jizzed over for our tranny: http://www.tccoa.com/articles/tranny/transmission/index.shtml
and don't hesitate to buy this: http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product2_10001_10002_758370_-1

hopefully this link works http://www.fordracingparts.com/parts/part_details.asp?PartKeyField=891

I was planning on getting a tranny cooler and maybe 3.73s with the shift kit. Every one recommends the jerry mod and always give me that link but I still don't understand how one goes about doing this mod.

You can do the J-mod yourself to the tranny or get one already done from these guys http://www.bc-automotive.com/html/complete_4r70w_valve_body_kit.html

The J-mod does not require the tranny to be dropped.. and it's highly jizzed over for a good reason.
