shift kit
hey guys, im thinking i will get a shift kit for my truck. Do i have to get my DP reburned? What shift kit is the best? With the stuff i have done, can i get away with the stock torque converter? If you got any other advice...thanks guys

I think the trans-go thugger kit is one of the best but you would have to drop the trans to do it.Or just get a valve body from BTS or John wood.

I built my own valve body, and if I had to do it again I would probably just order one... I didnt want mine to shift any softer so I had Jody leave my line pressure alone... You can have the shifting adjusted through the chip, but if you are just looking to have a "sift kit" then you can leave the chip alone too.... For a fully built transmission its worth having the tunes done though

My trans rebuild upgrades with shift kit, along with the DP Tunes, causes some pretty harsh shifting at heavy throttle. I would recommend the tunes be altered to adjust for the added pressure that these create. Mine gets "down right scary" under full throttle. Feels like its going to torque apart.
