Whos running shift kits in their aod?!?!

Mine is the bauman, don`t spend alot of money on a shift kit, just get the bauman kit.

AOD`s have no vacuum, they have a TV cable. Go here for info to set it correctly.

The bauman kit can be set to shift how you want soft,firm or parts breaking hard and anywhere in between.

i changed the whole valvebody.i went with a pa street strip unit.no drilling or messing with stuff just unbolt and bolt in the new vb and your done.so far im very happy with it. phil

I wish I knew what the previous owner put in my '84. I like it. Not too harsh, shifts are nice and quick and crisp.

Now, if only I actually had a decent motor to go along with it...

Mine hits 2nd too hard, but 3rd is just right, I don`t want to break the pencil shaft for the direct drum so I kept 3rd somewhat tame.

I dont know which one i have either but it hits HARD even when it goes it to OD...lol...I like it so far.....

lol I have a Transgo that I've been running for a few years now and its ok. I absolutely love it at WOT. It hits the 1-2 shift pretty damn hard. The 2-3 is also strong but by then my car isn't pulling as hard anyway. Shifting into OD is smooth but still firmer than stock. Then again I've rarely gone into OD at anything more than half-throttle. I'm too worried about burning it up so I'm always cautious when dealing with OD.

The Transgo is a bit too harsh for my liking during normal driving. It does shift at lower rpms like it should but the shifts are still very abrupt. It's especially noticable when I have a passenger. Their heads get thrown back even under normal driving. lol Also, the shift into OD is a bit sloppy if the shift happens "off-throttle". It seems to be a matter of pressure but I still haven't figured out how to correct it. If I'm on the gas when the shift happens it's perfectly smooth.

If I had it to do over I would spend a little more for a full valve body upgrade (ei: Lentech). It would be nice to have the full manual option which allows you to operate the first three gears manually (OD can be locked out electronically).
