Anyone using Jake's 4L80e Rebuild Kit?
Hey all, wondering how the Jake's Lvl 2 rebuild kit shifts? I only have experience with a factory 80e with a Transgo in it and that trans shifted awesome at WOT and part throttle 2-3 and 3-4 but the part throttle 1-2 shift was a little bit harsh. I'm wondering what a Jake's kit would feel like? I'll be having my local trans shop do the rebuild on a core I sourced.

How does it shift? Nice and firm or do you wish it shifted harder?

you should have talked to your tuner about that harsh part throttle 1-2. |
Not running Jake's kit...
My tune had the stock upshift pressures and I had an annoying 1-2 tire chirp. I pulled all the upshift pressure out, it still did it. I had to modify the force motor table to get the shift firmness like I wanted. Mine is a stock'ish rebuild with the internal dual feed mod done. |

Transgo shift kit I assume? What did you drill the separator plate to
The local guy sourced his own core and built it. I know he used BW clutches in it. |

No idea tbh. After I sourced my 80e and that went south, I took it to a local guy. My only request was the internal dual feed mod and with whatever else he did, I don't have any issues out of it.

He wouldn't use your old core?
It did it before and after the rebuild. We suspected a cross leak some where. |
