It defiantly seems like it tries to shift.

I couldn't find the target slip time, I read that in another post but couldn't find it. I did raise the TV pressure and it helped a little on the 1-2 shift but it still isn't right.

Order the BTS valve body and adjust the calibration plate for shift firmness. BTS valve body install.

Baby steps......

Start on the low side of your shift pressures and creep up to it. This is something that will take a bit of time and patience to get perfect.

ok thanks, I think all I hve with my OBS is pressure tables to control the firmness. Ill either have a shift kit or a VB installed end of next week, should be fun.
