Yesterday my son and I installed the A & A low band apply reverse manual valve body in his Dart along with the billet low/reverse servo and stronger spring. He decided he felt better running the low band apply and the job went nice and smooth. And I will say it shifts great on the 1-2 shifts with no lag or drag in the shift. It shifts just as solid as it did with the no low band apply V/B. He bought the V/B from A & A and it really seems to be a nice quality piece that works great. He plans to go back to the track soon with it. Ron

I have an A1 LB apply trans brake valve body I will put in someday. I have driven a non LBA Cheetah VB on the street for 20 years, its going to be a tough change I am sure.

Yes it still has the 406 (.030 over 400) in it. It uses the MP .557 cam and has KB pistons as its right at 10.6 comp as we had the RPM heads milled some. Has the RPM dual plane intake and a 750 DP. Its 3.91 gears and a Dynamic 9.5 street/strip converter. The last time it was at the track was about a year ago when he ran his best et of 11.41 @ 117. Its not a lightweight as it weighs just over 3600 lbs with his 180 in it. Ron

Me to and I still run my no low band apply manual valve body on the street. I do have a trans blanket on mine as my son does not so I feel better with the low band apply V/B in his car. Ron
