The Valve Body Upgrade from "Don in Texas" has received a lot of good press in this forum. Use the SEARCH button in the upper right hand area to learn more.

I highly recommend this mod. I just installed mine about a week ago and I am extremely happy with it. Shifts are so much more firm. It's great.

Automatic transmission? It suck ***!

Don's VB mod is the only way to go. I wish I have the funds to get Don's VB mod. That's my next priority once I get the funds. I also wish that swapping for a 5spd. manual transmission would be cheaper. I asked a transmission place, and they quoted me that it would cost me around $3k to do the swap. I don't think so! I might as well get a darn supercharger. Oh well...
