Shift kit experiences / recommendations for E4OD

I've been doing some searches on this and would like to know currently who has used what, and the likes / dislikes of what has been used.

I'm planning on changing the fluid in the tranny and figured that it would be a good time to add an additional trans cooler and shift kit to 'clean up the slop' so to speak.

Any info on your experiences would be great!

Thanks,
Mark

Transgo make a number of Kits depending on what you want to fix. They have a pretty good website. There is a good thread in the 6.9/ 7.3 section on the B&M Shift Improver. Lots of people are happy with that. It is around $50 and very easy to install.
If you pull the valve body, take care with the check *****. There are lots of them and lots of combinations depending on year of trans. It appears that in 89/90 you could have anywhere from 9 to 12. If they go bouncing on the floor, good luck. Don
