Default Trans-go Shift Kit Setting.

I am in the process of upgrading to 3.42 gears, SY3500 TC, Trans Cooler, programming, and Trans-go Shift Kit. I see the Shift Kit can be configured in four different settings. For those of you that have had this shift kit installed, which setting did you go with 1(street show off),2(heavy duty),3(pro-street), or 4(full race)?

We have been using two spacers on the 1/2 accum, and one on the band with great results

Steve,
Is there anything to drilling the feed holes?
Do you combine your spacer useage with tuning changes to the tranny?

You have to drill one hole larger depending on convertor size and the two spacers seem to be fine with all others

I don't use one, but here is a quote from Yank!

Yank Performance Converters can achieve maximum performance and efficiency without the use of shift kits. Shift kits dramatically raise transmission line pressure to increase shift firmness. Increased shift firmness will not increase performance, but create unnecessary stress on the transmission and other drive-line components.
