My friend has just purchased the above with 80k on .

Shift feels to take it,s time . Should it not be a quick sporty type change in one of these?

does he need a shift kit or simply the bands or what ever need adjusting ..

suggestions please.

Thanks :D

Tell you friend to drive it quite hard and then shift like it's a manual (foot off). I've found that this drastically reduces shifting times and gives a much sharper/harsher snap rather than a smooth transfer.

Failing that get the shift kit from MV.

You should also note that an up-shift will only take place with sufficient RPM or something like that.

Good pionts, will pass on, is it worth adjusting the bands at this stage ??

How much for a kit as MV are in SA we r inWA and they have no web site?

No sounds normal for the GTT box, shift kit will sort this out. MV atuomatics in Adelaide are the people to contact

Yours always would feel spongy as you never drive it hard enough........ :banana:

Cmon Dan, when you comin to the track so we can play "catch me if you can"?????

    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
