In my directions it mentions nothing about tyeing it back. Are you supposed to still do that?

Thanks Tom

You can do it either way, but I kept my Lokar kickdown as a variable throttle pressure setup, adjusted the same as if it were a kickdown. Tooling around town the shifts are mild, quick. Full throttle they are fast and firm. Seems a better way than tying it back like many mention elsewhere. Strange Transgo makes no mention on what to do regardless of whether a greenhorn or seasoned professional is installing it.
 
Does the #3 kit provide a new TP valve and stiffer spring? Or ask you to grind one end of the valve off.
For a streeter, I never liked the #3. It was fun at first........ but got old pretty quick. The 2800TC on the other hand, that was nice.
 
Gotta grind it, and replace that spring with one provided. I'm happy with the way it performs, having read on this forum on tying it back, as well as running the kickdown linkage as before. Worse thing about it for me is the stock A100 shifter, it suffices but theres no positive detents or stops preventing blowing through into neutral, and requires a little bit too much attention when shifting, which was the main reason to go with a race quality aftermarket shifter.

I'm running a hurst promatic 2 so that shouldn't be a problem. I already removed my kickdown cable so I'm just going to tie it back and see what happens.
 
For mostly on the street I like to use the throttle pressure, then ur tranny is not always on full pressure. For the track only, I tie it back. Kim
