Identify Transmission BEFORE starting installation.

A lockup transmission has an auxiliary valve body, with a solenoid, in front of main valve body.
Note: Lockup gaskets are not provided in this kit.

A TH250 transmission has a band adjustment on the passenger side of the case toward the front and can be a lockup or a non-lockup version.

All TH250C or TH350C lockup transmissions and TH250 non-lockup units will re- use the original plate.

Note: Lockup gaskets are not provided in this kit.

This is not a high performance product. It has been designed to improve the shift quality and durability of the TH350 and TH250 transmissions. It furnishes additional oil flow to areas known to warp and wear, and exhausts the cross leaks that often cause friction failure. Installing this kit on a transmission that is in good condition, or during repair, is excellent preventative maintenance.

Lockup transmissions may have a governor pressure switch here. Switches range from 38-54psi. Higher the PSI = Higher lockup speed.

Plates

• Use petroleum jelly or approved assembly gel to “stick” the gaskets & check balls to the plate for “in-car” assembly.
• [4] extra 0.250” check balls are provide

DO NOT   DRILL the new shift kit plate. For 350 Non-Lockups Only

Check ball locations with transmission installed
