Don't do it or you could damage your engine. It cost me 2 engines. First one over reved in low gear when I accidentally pulled it into low thinking it was super. You can't pull the trans into low if the rpm is too high with the stock trans but with a shift kit it will go into low. 2nd one damaged the thrust bearing from extremely hard upshufts. After this I had Manny remove the kit and redo the trans. If you are a flatlander you may never have a problem but living in a mountain state is hard on drive trains cause you are always working it hard climbing steep grades while towing. You can remove the shift kit but you will need to move some steel balls around and a few other things best to remove the valve body and send it to manny to put it back to stock.
