A shift improver kit is not a repair kit. In fact the vast majority of the time you install a shift improver kit in a transmission that is very old (like yours) it'll blow the seals because a shift improver kit raises the line and throttle pressure and 40 year old seals are almost always hard and brittle. It can also finish off the clutches and bands or something else detrimental to the workings of the trans. I have been rebuilding torqueflite's since 1981 and I learned the hard way in my early days you never put a shift improver kit in a trans that is not in real good condition.
OK, after reading the installation instructions I get quite nervous. I plan to own the car for years to come, so I will just put the shifter improver on the shelf with other projects that need doing. I may decide to install it at a later date or maybe put it on the for sale forum.
Thanks for the info
