Hey 700R4 guys, have you tried this?
I'm also a member of the thirdgen camaro site, and saw this post while searching for something else. Has anyone here tried this? They only boast about how good this works.

Re: Hey 700R4 guys, have you tried this?
Interesting, I guess it would depend on what you use your truck for. Mine is my daily, so part throttle 3000rpm hard shifts don't sound like my cup of tea.
But if I was just using it to cruise on the weekends I'd probably give it a try.

Re: Hey 700R4 guys, have you tried this?
I read this to and was thinking why would you want that hard of a shift for a daily driver. I guess some like that, I perfer a nice smooth shift my self.

Re: Hey 700R4 guys, have you tried this?
yeah, i hear ya. i wouldn't want it that hard. i was just wondering if anyone on here had the same type of opinion as the camaro guys. the transmission i'm putting in will already have upgraded internals, but i don't want something that will snap my neck.

Mine has about 200,000 miles on it and it has performed well over the years. I like it just as it is.

Re: Hey 700R4 guys, have you tried this?
I just ordered one out of curiosity. They're on eBay for $7 + $2 shipping.
Looks like you could go with a shorter spring to adjust the degree of change it makes
