Initial inspection of A500

Well....ignorance is bliss....at this point it is damn the torpedos and full steam ahead. I’m going to finish the shift kit and get it ready for a test fit under the car.

Tranny shop says to warrant it they want it in the car. Thanks for the advise and keep your fingers crossed she has enough miles in her to work out the bugs after the install.
I did pretty much the same thing with mine, and had the same attitude about doing it later if I had to.
I was also in a bit of a time crunch at the time, but knew it was possible I might have to pull it back out and fix it at some point.


I see this a lot; people making uninformed decisions that end up costing ten times more in time, money and frustration. DUDE! It takes more expertise to install that shift kit than it does to pull the pump and front drums.

I totally agree that it takes more to install the shift kit, and it also looks like he has all the recommendations and information he needs to make his own decision.
He knows what the possibilities are at this point.
