I use a mix n match of Sonnax parts, no on the banks deal, firming the shifts by means of raising epc with a chip or other electronic means is hard on the pump.

HI....& thanks is this something I could do ( I build motors BUT trans baffle me!! altho thanks to frank merkle I am getting brave with C6s..)
MY problem in inconsistent shifting.. sometimes it shifts nice & firm BUT it SLIIIIIIDES in WAY TO OFTEN!!! IF you do not think I could do this would you "build" one & sell it to me?? how much?? Is there a controller you like?? Or a "shift improver "kit" you like??? (there are TONS on FLEABAY BUT none that know anything about)
I will spend money to make it live I just HATE TO WASTE!!!

Call / text a guy by the name of Paul Delpo.
His # is 203-560-2848
He builds a really good accumulator valve body for the E4OD's & 4R100's at a fair price.
He's done several for me, as well as complete hi-end builds on my stuff as well as the C-6 in my race truck.
Tell him I (Keith Blackburn) sent you.
