Default Transgo Kit ?

My question is about the sep. plate. They give you a few holes to seal up with some little aluminum slugs. I don't like that idea. Has anyone ever used a different method such as JB weld, soldering, ect. I like the JB weld idea. Not sure if the trans fluid would affect it. Anybody have expiernce with this? Thanks.

JB weld would be a bad idea. Use the aluminum plugs. Transmissions have been using them for years and years all throughout the valve bodies.

I did the TransGo kit about four years ago, and have had no problems. I sure would be worried about pieces of JB weld breaking loose and floating around.

I used a small allen head set screw.

What is a Transgo kit? :confused:
It's a shift kit. It leans the transmission more toward the high-performance side while still being streetable. Harder/faster shifts = better ET's
