i am plannin on gettin stage 1 inj ad tw or dp chip and next time i change my tranny fluid im gonna do c00ns shift kit but what else should i do to my tranny to hold the extra power

 

I'm interested to hear this 'cause I need to rebuild mine. Front seal is leaking and if I pull it out I'm doing the whole thing.

 

Jim, you might take a look at the "CURE" it assists in extending the life of the tranny by eliminating the slippage which reduces heat and we all know that heat is a killer of our trannys

Several of us are using the CURE including me and I personally endorse this product as it made my truck like new. I am one happy camper with it.
Enough about my feelings. Go to: The Ford Transmission Cure for shift flair problems

It will have you do a couple of tests so that you can ascertain whether or not you feel the the CURE would be of a benefit. It's an easy install.

If you have worn out parts, broken parts or your tranny is just toast and you need an overhaul, this unit will be of no benefit to you until such time after the rebuild.

Hope this helps,

will the cure be all i need to do to the tranny with stage 1s and a chip ,is it safe to use with c00ns hole drill shift kit, what do i need to raise the pressure in the lines

 

or do i need to raise the pressure or will the chip do it

 

I don't think that I know those answers, perhaps TJ or MadVan or one of the other several gurus that lurk in the shadows will come on board and give their view points and experience.

I do recall C00mhunter warning NOT to use his mod with a shift kit.

i rode in c00ns truck and his mod is very nice with the shifts. firm and no delay. but if you are goin to do a shift kit then dont do his mod because it'll pry be break neck shifts

 

puting a shift kit with my mod is bad, my mod is a shift kit so you would be doubling the process.

using my mod with "the cure" would be great though, the 2 combined would be great since they address different issues and would interact great together.

i personally dont like to "crank up" the line pressure, its hard on the seals and doesnt address the physical reasons for the crappy shifts. it hides the overall problem vs fixing it.

With the way you mod the VB which modulator is in your VB?
I ask this do to the change over of the valve and will make a difference in shift feel. I do not remember the year of the changeover.

OP
There are some other things that can/should be done for full time lube and cooling of trans. As c00n has stated. The cure is for the TC and the VB mods are for the shift apply

i was only gonna do c00ns shift kit with maybe the cure, possibly torque converter

 

If pulling trans to install a triple disk. I would also mod the pump at that time for the TC lockup.

my accumulator body and valve body is all stock, i changed no valves nor do i know which one is in the truck. the truck had the typical e4od shifts before the mod.

 

If it has the OEM valve (in 97), it should have a .372
The early valve is .331
