I guess I'll leave it in. Don't really want hard shifts nor care about chirping the tires but does leaving it in defeat the purpose of using this particular valve body? Once again, the outer accumulator spring DOES NOT cushion any upshift...it's an old Mopar myth. Spring or no spring, as long as the accumulator piston is free to move it will cushion the 1-2 upshift. The accumulator does affect the 1/2 shift. Removing the outer spring without blocking it hammers the accumulator piston, I have seen them cracked from this, why would you remove it without blocking it? Some of the performance transmissions had an inner spring on the accumulator to hold it down from the factory. Moral to the story, if you remove the outer spring, block the piston.
