Also how many shims should I put in? Stock tune and torque convertor. I want a crisp shift but dont want to break my neck at low throttle.

I put 1 shim in and could break a neck at low throttle.

I left my 1-2 accumulator stock: no shims, no changing springs. Between the servo addition and the hole drilling, I have all the crispness I need (or want)

Want to add that I was able to "tune" this neck breakage low throttle shifting out with HPT. Feels perfect now.

What else does the hd-2 kit have that the other doesnt and how much more involved is it to do.
Right now I'm looking at getting the shift kit, crovette servo and longer rod, saperator plate, and aluminum accumulator piston. (nothing ordered yet)
