Ok Bernd, then help me understand how that would enable you to change the
shift point for one gear without affecting the other. Wouldn't you agree
the shift control valvespring is a viable solution to the problem of
different shift points for different gears? It worked for me and mopar
muscle. This was an issue of equal shift points before the transgo kit and
different ones after, apparently due to the springs that come with the
transgo kit. As for the TV adjustment, without any "custom TV valve", I
can move both my shift points (equally, not individually) anywhere I want
them just through the cable adjustment.
