    you also have the option of a handheld tuner,works better imho. you can adjust firmness and when shifts occur without getting your hands dirty

    The easiest thing to do (any probably the safest) is to just get a handheld tuner.

    I had a TransGo shift kit installed about 50k miles ago and have had zero problems, but there are alot of anecdotes about TransGo's going South.

    If you think you really want one, just get a stock valve-body that has been drilled out properly. This site has an excellent reputation, last time I checked. Might want to give them a call. http://bc-automotive.com/

    Good luck with it.
