Not many builders have this to offer. It is just slap them together and ship them out.
You are absolutly right, i don't know of any trans builders that have a trans dyno, maybe Abruzzi has played with these valves to get them to release quicker, i'm familar with BTE,TCI and they surly just slap them together. I personly have 2 trans with TSR electic shift valve bodies, and they won't leave on a 4.0 tree, maybe 4.40, with the 1.76 low gear, i haven't tried the trans with 1.80 straight cuts yet. i can't afford one of Marco's trans, but i do know he's top of the line. PTC (Kenny Ford) is a personal friend but i don't have one of his trans, but i do use his converters.

Marco and Coan both have a dyno .. a great thing for a trans shop to have IMO
on the topic ... IMO Coan makes the fastest one I've ever used, my non pro brake Coan is as fast (more delay) as my pro brake Abruzzi/Hipster/BTE
David are you leaving on the last yellow? and how much do you have to roll into the box? i know you have a starting line thottle enhancer.
I don't have these features and i leave on the last yellow and roll .040 in the box and hope i don't go red. I'm too old to catch the top light all the time and the last yellow gives me time too adjust/see the tree. The last time out i went .487 red so i guess i'm never going to get it right all the time.
This is turning into an intresting thread.
