Line Pressure Increase? With shiftkit installed.
Is it safe AT ALL to increase line pressure via pcm with a shiftkit/servo's installed?
I ask because I'm now leaning on my last efforts to save my current tranny before I break down and get a new one...

Today it engaged first almost like the transmission was completely out of fluid. Atleast that's what it felt like. I'm figuring when I had nelson drop the line pressure someone/somethin fvcked up somewhere and now there is not enough line pressure for first gear.

Safe... Sure line pressure can be still be increased some, but it won't solve your problem.
Sorry to have to give you bad news.

I ran increased line pressure + a shift kit for a long time.. To hard of a shift for me so I backed it down to stock pressure.. I can still bark 1-2 and 2-3 though
