Taming the shift on my trans

Installing an accumulator spring may or may not help because some manual valve bodies have the accumulator circuit blocked internally. It's worth a try but no guarantee. The softer the spring the softer the shift. If you need one i have one you can have for the cost of shipping. just PM me. A lower front band apply ratio should help. All the Cheetah's I've done called for a 5.0 lever but that's to make them shift the firmest. Installing a 3.2 should soften it up a fair amount. The front band apply lever mostly affects the 1-2 shift but if your trans is overlapping on the 2-3 shift it'll clean it up too. Even backing off the front band adjustment should help some. Just don't back it off so much it slips cause that'll toast it.
