    Shift kits

    Friday and Saturday I cleaned the A904 and installed a TransGo reprograming kit. I used the TF-1 kit and found that the kit is better suited for a 727. By that I mean that with a 60-65 A904, you use very few parts. In all I drilled 3 holes. 2 holes enlarged the passages for the 1-2 and 2-3 shift...
