Which Manual valve body?

[jefflock]

I'm looking to convert my spare tranny to full manual reverse valve body this winter. Which one have guys used and how easy was it to install?? Jeff

Cope Racing has a nice unit. You need to make sure it has low band apply. Many do not and that is very unsafe...

A valve body without low band apply is not unsafe. If you know its limitations and how to use it there are no problems. Now, if you drive like a moron........ all bets are off. If you're using an aftermarket shifter by all means go with a reverse valve body. If you're using a factory console shifter, you might consider a forward manual valve body (T/A). I like mine.

Cope has a gate to replace the stock console shifter gate to make it compatible with a reverse manual VB . the reverse pattern VB's control the trans better according to Cope.

If you are not racing where every .0001 makes a difference then there is nothing wrong with the extra safety that you get from a low band apply VB .

I believe if you do your research you will find A&A Transmission make the only RMVB w/LBA - the rest just sell them.

cope is a low band

Please explain the limitations you are refering to? I understand that the biggest problem is doing a burn out with non low band apply lets the trans free wheel after letting off throttle.If left in 1st gear. I would like to here your input on rmvb non low band apply cause that is what I will be installing behind mild 340.Not meanining to hi jack thread. Thanks Kevin.
