I have a 1988 Mustang GT hatchback with an automatic transmission. I was told that a shift kit and a boost valve would be enough. I was suggested that Baumann was good. I have been suggested also to just buy a new valve body for my transmission. What are the pros and cons of each? Which would be better for a transmission with over 100,000 miles on it? An overhaul would be necessary of course. I plan to install the trickflow kit that consists of the intake, heads, cam, roller rockers, etc... in the future. Right now I have a Cobra intake, MAC shorty unequal length headers, two chamber Flowmaster mufflers, 70mm BBK throttle body, 76mm C&L mass air meter with powerpipe, K&N filter, 190 lph fuel pump. I will install Steeda lowering springs and their aluminum caster/camber plates, Hotchkis lower control arms and Bilstein shocks and struts next week. Which will be best, valve body or shift kit? Information greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
