Trying to get my head back in the game, I was ready about my three setup options
with the 1-2 and 3-4 accumulator valves. By just reading the manual, I should pick
the last option to get the firmest shift possible. But I wondered since most shift kits
are for cars much heavier than mine by 1500-2000 lbs, I decided to send Chris at
CK Performance an email to confirm the right option.
Luckily for me I sent that email because he suggested starting with the softest
option ....completely opposite of the the manual.
I would start with the softest settings. As for the governor we need to
know where it shifts at now and what governor you are using.

Chris,
I need to confirm which option to choose for the 1-2 & 3-4 accumalator in the
200-4R trans. You recommend for anything over 325 HP to eliminate the valve
and use the 1/4" cup plugs per your instruction manual.
My car is a TBucket that only weighs about 1800 lbs and will mostly be used for
street/cruising, with the occasional blast. Should I still use 1/4" cup plugs or
drop back to the middle option from your instructions for the shift kit 24RSRK/A.
Car/Engine Specs:
Your D5 2800 RPM stall converter
Ford 9" , 3.7:1 limited slip differential
400 cuin SBC (See HP/Torque Attached)
Crower Camshaft 00471
Below is the page of the manual I was reading with my options for configuring the trans.
