Shift kit = happy driver

Got my heavy duty C6 with Transgo kit in the truck Monday night. All I can say is wow, what a difference! Nice firm gear shifts, winds out gears nicely, can leave tranny in D all the time now and it drives the way I want it to. The tranny came from an 88 E350 van, so it has a higher stall convertor in it, truck launches and accelerates a lot differently than before. This is behind a 351W in a 79 2wd F150.
