Hi i just bought a 1965 country sedan and its got a c-6 with a shift kit. my question is- how can i soften the shift between gears? its awfully hard. i thought that it had something to do with that valve down on the tranny? enlighten me fellas! Raf-
just get another shift kit and install the plates for a milder shift points in the valve body,,,,my old suburban had a shift kit in it i presume for towing and it shifted hard but it did,nt bother me ,,i mean it was,nt chirpin the tires but it was pretty agressive. does your trans have a towing shift kit ,,street / strip or what? :icon_drive:
you know what bud, i wish i knew... its like you said pretty agressive but no chirp, im assumin cause of the weight. if it was a mustang im sure it bust em loose. the only shift kit ive ever done was on a 350 tranny and it was a gasket a ball bearing and some other crap. i aint ever dona e ford. all the ford i ever owned were stick shifters. is there a way to tell what is in there?
no way to tell without dropping the pan pal sounds like it s got a "towing" kit in her if the kids aint hitting the back window..from 1st to 2nd.. .then i'd say leave it !! otherwise...find a respectable tranny shop......... ...and have them take it out. it must have a trailer hitch?...yes?
it used to but the PO took it out before tranny was rebuilt, and the kids will hit the rear winder!!!
