which is better and why forward or reverse pattern mvb
............. I use the trans go tf-3 kit to turn a stock vb into a fpmvb.......and yes it does increase the line pressure and the holding power of the clutches and bands, plus u always have low band apply when in 1st gear.........u do need the tp linkage or have it wired all the way back........its a bit tricky getting the perfect 1-2 shift but it is all in the clearances and band settings......I have been using the tf-3 kit since the early 80s I like it.......kim.........
