Does anyone know if you can install an "A" OverDrive servo and 2" Overdrive band without taking out the tranny? I have decided on getting a TransGo Performance shift kit and want to replace the the other big weak link while I'm at it....
Thanks! ![[Roll Eyes]](rolleyes.gif)

The servo can be swapped (by pulling the valve body), but you have to take the pump out to replace the band.

I just got my TransGo kit in today along with my A+ OD Servo and 2" OD band. I was reading through the instructions and was wondering if I should install the green or blue spring in the new capacity valve. It says the blue springs will give extra firm shifts between 1st & 2nd.....If I install 3.73 gears would this become annoying for regular street use....or would it put a smile on my face?
Any feedback would be most appreciated!

i'd go w/ the extra firm....you might bark 2nd everytime it shifts(if your mildly on the gas) but it will oil it way better. The more oil the tranny gets...the quicker it shifts.

It was the AOD-HP Reprogramming kit. It will be going into my 92 LX convertible. This car will be a donor for the Factory Five MKll Roadster Cobra replica (factoryfive.com)that I will be building in a few years......damn, I hate waiting!
Peace!
