Default Transgo Seperator Plate-Should I drill it?

I am installing a Transgo HD2 shift kit with a new Transgo seperator plate. I am also doing a Corvette 2nd servo and a Sonnax 4th servo. So, should I drill the seperator plate out to the .082 for 1-2 shifts, and all other holes to .093? Or with the Transgo plate and the servos, will my shifting be just fine with the Transgo drilled holes?

if you're running a stall, you need to drill the holes . . . .


and leave the spacers in the baggy . . . they're really not needed.

I drilled the 1-2 holes to .082, ad the rest to .093 like the directions said to for short shifts without a stall. I am not going to use any spacers. Hopefully it will shift nice. I just left the dealer, 10.00 bucks a quart for Dexron VI!!!! Damn, my trans must love liquid gold. I also got a +2 quart trans pan with cooling lines. I should be set to go for awhile.

without a stall it's going to shift really hard, . . more than firm. I drilled my plate the same as yours, and it's pretty solid.

Now when you're ready to beat on it, it's a whole different story. 75 punches on the freeway are a blast.

Be sure to have your line pressure back to stock.

Crap. Looks like I will have to try and soften up my 1-2 shifts with hp tuners since I already drilled it out to .082.

You could also return your 1-2 accumulator back to the factory setup. I would make sure that the 1-2 accumulator valve is not sticking and also that you did not install it upside down. This is a common mistake. Vince

So, should I just not use the Transgo seperator plate and redrill my stock one but leave the 1/2 hole alone? I don't want this thing to shift to hard, but quick would be nice.
