Sorry about that Roy,

I haven't fulled finished this up. But I did install the kit. I put in the highest K1/K2 springs the kit offered. That combined with a new B2 piston made the 1-2 shift almost unnoticeable at a moderate acceleration.

I think I might be low on ATF due to my inability to properly install a pan and pan gasket.. but without vacuum, there are no more flares in the shifts, all are nice and firm.

With vacuum, if only applying a small amount of pedal, all shifts are nice and just about undetectable. When applying full throttle, no problem either, nice firm ****s. When applying say anywhere in between I occasionally get a 3-4 flare up.

I'm still working it out, this car is a long-term restore so its not driven daily [even though it needs to be ]
