Never tried just the shift kit it's self,IV alway's installed transpak kit.I like B&M products,Even with only a shift kit installed you will notice a differiance in the shift.Can't say who has better kit's and so on never used any thing but B&M stuff.

ive only used the B&M also and it was also the trans pack, huge difference! they are probably all a good quality kit anymore if you get a brand name part. and yes if you have 500 horses you should have this conversion.
Live everyday like it were your last, someday it will be.

I've used B&M and TCI on Ford C4 and C6 transmissions. Both are equal as far as I am concerned tho I do think the TCI instructions need some help. I agree with Denny. The trans has to be in good shape with clear/clean oil and good shifts before the mod - it isn't a band-aid for one that needs overhaul. The lowest stage is sufficiant for basically stock engines and a stock or low stall converter and street or towing. I have for years been using TCI SFI flex plates, their Saturday Night Special torque converters and Street Fighter transmissions with great luckDave

This is a little bit of reading, but I think it's worth checking out before you by a kit. But then again I try to read up on everything I do (no matter now many times I've done it before. My wife says it's age! ), to come up with new idea's!

Ok gang. It's been awhile. With everything that was going on taking care of my mom's affairs and making a few needed mods to the Healey, it was June before anything really got rolling on this...
