I purchased a Diablo Sport Chip from you a while back. While I really like it, is there any way you can make it shift firmer. When I am getting on it, it really doesn't shift like I thot it would....kinda slow actually. I did beat a Dodge the other day. That was neat and all but when it shifts under a load I would think it should "connect" instantly. I was thinking of kinda like the old shift kits we used to put in cars...nice and firm. I don't rod it a lot....in fact not much at all, but would like to feel the firm shift all the time. I would like to be able to "chirp" the tires like some of these guys say they can. Anything you can do?

Yes we can do it, but its not recommended that we go too firm with a chip alone as the tranny may not be able to supply the pressure. A Diablo shift valve, in conjunction with the chip, is the safe way to do it. The valve takes about 45 minutes to put it.....
Thanks for replying so soon Ken. I talked to Peggy and I'm going to try and send my chip to you on Monday. Can that valve your talking about work on a 4R70 Transmission? I thot it was for the 4R100 only. If it works for mine(4R100) I would definitely be interested.
