...Dancing Bananas to show how excited I am!
I installed the Factory Tech Valve Body yesterday... Wow!!!
You are awesome Gregg! I love the feel of the shifts now!
Stock valve body/shift feel was not bad, but after reading so many happy owners with this upgrade and the fact that it cools things down in the tranny, thus prolonging it's life, I had to do it. I'm so frik'n happy i did. It makes the L thrust foward on shifts... gotta love that!
It was not a bad install, not as messy as I thought. Only a few drops in my hair.
Using my dad's lift was a huge help...

Gregg included great directions as well.
Thanks to all my L brothers here that talked about how great the FT/VB is.
I LOVE IT! So glad I did it!

One more

 

 

Thanks Nasty Wendy... yes you are one of many that convinced me!
I love this post: Nasty Reviews FTVB

 

Its a great product for sure. I have had two and installed a few. NOONE has ever had a bad thing to say about it....

 

And you kept the floor clean---you'll probably get to use the garage again, huh?

 

WOW, nice garage floor! Gregg builds the best transmission parts available, you'll love it for sure.

Yes, I kept it clean And I did not even poke a hole in the stock pan. First I drained the torque converter. Then I removed all bolts in the tranny pan except the 4 corners. I loosed the back two bolts. Removed the front two and let the pan drain slowly into a drain pan bigger than the tranny pan that I had right under tranny pan. Then carefully lowerd the tranny pan a few inches into the drain pan and let it drip for a 1/2 hour. I just took my time and was careful. I had a lot of old blankets on the floor, so none got on the tile floor beside a few tiny splatters which wipped right up.
I did upgrade to a 4x4 pan, it does hang down a bit more, if I ever hit something and dent it (God, I hope not) I can go back to the stock pan.
I may just use it for a big Jello mold for now!

 

dent it you will, young jedi...

 

Ouch!
Were you at stock height when you did that?

 

He was probably out gigging frogs

 

What the heck is that, "gigging frogs"?
I did a search:http://www.dartreview.com/issues/11.12.01/gigging.html

 

"By the end of a good night of gigging, we have a heavy sack of frogs. Some are smaller ones, but most are larger bullfrogs, sometimes as long as a foot from head to toe. We drive home, and deposit the sack of frogs in the refrigerator. I will never forget the morning after my first night of frog gigging when, reaching into the refrigerator for milk, I saw our sack of frogs still squirming around! Those buggers really are tough."
