Goerand Valve Body
What can I expect or what difference will I notice in my truck by installing the valve body and shift lever they recomend?

Well, better shifting for one. Second is improved line pressures to help hold the clutches... There are other improvements that mostly won't be felt but aid in tranny function and longevity.

If I may add aquestion on this subject.
My tranny shifts as well as can be expected for the 48 RE, I just need something to lock it a little tighter when I get on it with 100 hp Jr tune.
This isn't that often, mostly run around on the Perf tune.
Just hangs the rpms about 3K for just a second in 3rd.
Then shifts well into high.
Would a better VB help this situation??
Not ready to drop a grand or more on a TC yet.

Well i had the transgo valve body done and it helped none on that dang ole shuttle shifting crap that drives me up a wall. But the shifts in my opinion are more noticable and you can tell when selecting gears like say from Reverse to Drive it finds them way faster.

I agree with megaramasaur, save your money and at least do the vb and tc at the same time. imo they are two of the weakest links. the vb won't do much good without an upgraded tc.
