spiro, what does your kit cost? how extensive is the install? i sold my s/c from my cobra a few min. ago and all my susp a few days ago, so i have about 4000 to throw into my silver heap, i just need some professional help and guidance. i want to run 11's with only a 50 if any nos and i want my tranny to hold up super good, i work at a ford dealer so i could probably slide on getting some stuff covered under warranty if it was slightly modded, and i can get svt tech labor cheap too

I've had the Trans-Go shift kit in my truck for the last 12k miles. I'm now at 17k and the trans shifts as good as ever.

I paid ~$95 for my kit. I liked it so much I installed one in my wife's Expedition. Simple install...I did them myself.

I also installed a 4x4 trans pan/filter which is a bit deeper and gives you an extra quart of fluid capacity.

I'm very pleased with the Trans-Go kit and I believe the Level 10 is about the same.

Level 10 works great for me. Do a deep pan with a drain plug at the same time. Easy install, no drilling. I believe with the Trans-Go kit you need to do some drilling on the valve body.
