Transmission options
what can i do to upgrade my transmission besides just a torque convertor without either getting a performance rebuild or a whole tranny? I'm looking for something that can help to cure the 2nd-3rd sloppy shift problem since tunning doesn't seem to help much.
also can we get aftermarket valve bodies for the torqueshift?

The 2-3 will ALWAYS be a sloppy shift, due to what's going on during the shift.

You are right about this, except that the OD unit is in the front of the trans and the three speed portion is the rear half.

ok so if there are only solenoids then is there some kind of shift kit or line/pump upgrade that i could do to get better performance and atleast minimize the effects of the 2nd-3rd shift?
