The regular B&M Trick Shift is a Ford type "F", it will not help the clutches or band in a 700R4 or 4L60E. The reason it appears to make it "shift" harder is that it slips more at the bginning and through the middle of the shift and it allows the clutches/band to come on all at once at the end of the shift. The Dexron III has a smoother transition through out the entire shift, which is what you want.

Try the Shift +. You can get it form Mid America for $70. It's a switch that allows you to switch from stock firmness to two different firmness settings. I have this and it works great, it's been on setting 2(firmest) since I put it in. When it shifts from 1st to 2nd, it'll chirp 'em. :thumbs: The switch goes inside the car and you run two wires through the fire wall and splice into two wires on the PCM. Under 45 minute install. I LOVE it!
