I have a trans go hd in my truck. I still get a slight delay from drive to reverse. For some reson I remember the kit saying it corrected this. Its been in there a while. Did I do something wrong? I drove a stock one and it shifted quicker then mine. The truck is an 07classic with a 60e. Thanks.
Mine 4L80e seems a lot quicker drive to reverse with the HD2 kit.
Do you have the HD2 or the SK?
hd2. its not like it wont go in or anything just little bit slow for me.
Honestly, I wouldn't worry about it. :twocents:
how much of a pain is the HD2 kit to put in?
big difference?
Agreed. If it aint broke dont fix itQuote:

Is it worth it? That and plain vette servo or superior?
Not trying to speak for him, but from someone who has done countless servos and shift kits, yes--a shift kit is worth it. And a plain Corvette servo will do just fine.
took me about 5 hours but I took my time. To me its worth it and I have just the regular vette servo. It all seems to work fine for me. And i proley wont sweat the shifting issue its most likely all in my head. thanks alot
I have the vette servo and HD2, it is perfect for me. It took about 5 hours to do for me too, If you have ever done a shift kit it is easy to do, just take your time and enjoy.:)
What level or how many spacers you use? Don't want it too hard since fam rides in it still.
I wouldn't do any spacers. I have done kits with 2, 1, and no spacers. 2 spacers is waaaaaaaaay too much, 1 spacer is definitely a kick in the pants for a 1-2 shift, and I think no spacers is just right for firmness of the shift.
You know, I was just thinking about the original question. I'm pretty sure there is a hole on the sep plate whose size determines how quickly and how aggressively the trans engages forward and reverse.
If you can locate it next time you change the filter just drop the VB and enlarge it slightly.
My 1-2 accumulator has no spacers in and the accumulator piston is ground down to have a longer travel to give an even softer shift. Part throttle feels a lot quicker than stock but not much firmer and WOT barks the tires into 2nd. The more the throttle the harder the shift. I have the corvette servo aswell. Also, mine shifts into reverse slowly but I took the low reverse check ball out and I did not chamfer the shift valve like the kit said to do.
