Modifying already modified Valve Body?

I have Don's VB mod. I've had it for over a year now. It doesn't shift as fast 1-2-3 as I would like. 2-3 is pretty stock feeling. I do feel the tranny kick down 2-1 pretty fast but I think the upshifts could be a lot faster. I'm wondering if anyone has taken their VB modified by Don to Maximum Tuning or had it redone by another shop.

After speaking with Jeff, there's not much that can be done about the 2-3, and really nothing from 3-4. 1-2 is the main shift that they can drill wider to allow higher line pressure. 2-3 is hardly tweakable at all, so I don't think it's worth taking it all apart. Weaker shifts may just be the wear and tear on your tranny itself.

Pull the tranny resistor and your tranny will shift a lot harder

No thanks. =P Someone wired up a switch to the resistor or replaced the resistor with a variable one and ended up with a fire inside the cabin. Haha. No thanks. =P I'll just live with it.
