 Here is the gotcha on pressures - feed pressure to any of the clutches that are switched on during the forward gear shifts are additionally limited by reducing pressure. These clutches will be chopped down and regulated to about 2.35x line pressure. Base line pressure with a translab shift kit is in the 180psi range, but if you have your reducing pressure dropped to the minimum you will see this to the rear clutch (which never burns up) and only about 140psi to the front clutch, the transmission's weakest link. **__Any increase in line pressure should be accompanied by an increase in reducing pressure.__** Besides limiting max pressure to the clutches when modified, reducing pressure only influences the OEM pressure control that softens shifts. If you're running a manual shift setup without a TCU, low reducing pressure does not do anything useful and reducing pressure should be set as high as possible. Here is the gotcha on pressures - feed pressure to any of the clutches that are switched on during the forward gear shifts are additionally limited by reducing pressure.

-Line pressure adjustment is on the top side of the valvebody. I recommend maxing it out (counterclockwise) for either a stock regulator spring (~140psi) or a translab shfit kit spring (~200psi) in a high performance environment. Special applications can get different springs or add shims to these springs.(([[https://kigglyracing.com/valvebody|Kiggly Racing]]))+Line pressure adjustment is on the top side of the valvebody.
