If the shift kit is an electronic module, don't bother with it. You can do so much more with a DP Tuner than the Bullydog could do. Plus, you can have various shift strategies with different tunes, like your tow tune vs. economy/daily driver.

A valve body would benefit you more, and maybe that is what you're talking about. You say Bullydog so I think electronic modules. A VB helps firm the shifts mechanically, and Jody can tune to work with them, the benefit of custom tunes. If you are considering something like this, get it first, then the tunes so that Jody can tune accordingly.
