taken from old thread = tranny
Chip and intake were the best gains for the buck.
The other mods I have I love. Each one rocks. 4# pulley gives you a lot of low end torque... about 100' of black marks worth, without touching the brake... even got a 75 footer while towing a trailer full of furniture .... wish i would have brought my camera... it was hilarious....
The valve body rocks. The firm (really firm) shifts improve your quickness big time, but at what cost to tranny longevity is unknown to me...yet... you get a nice tire squak when it shifts from 1 to 2, and it really hits hard on 2-3... feels somewhat scary, but seeing that speedo needle instanly jump 5-7 MPH just on shift makes any bad feelings going away.... specially as you pull 6-8 feet farther on a vette at each shift...

just curious beefcake2002L did your tuner leave torque reduction on or off in your chip and did they adjust line pressure also=very hard shifts ,especially if you already had the valve body? i havent installed my chip yet , but i had Mark at LFP leave my torque reduction ON and to leave my line pressures alone , since i have the valvebody installed,did not want to pre destruct my tranny
