    Default Buying a stage 2 b&m shift kit

    Ok first of all i've been looking at the tuf car parts site and i was looking at the b&m shift kit how hard is to install my self as it says you dont even have to take the auto out of the car. You just need afew tools and the afternoon to install it also i want a stage 2 shift kit so i will need to buy the one for the t700 as i have a series2 vn.Why i'm asking is i am 90% sure vn v6's have the t700 auto but i heard someone say to me that nv's have the t350 auto which i'm pretty sure is a 3 speed auto and all vn's are 4speed auto's.I just want to make sure that i get the right stage 2 b&m shift kit.

    yiou know if i can find my gregory's i'll have a look but i remember readin the seires 2 were fitted with a diff box weather it is the 350 (doubt it) or another one.
    But as for the shift kit jhave you ever looked under the pan of your auto??? it's a bloody maze, for the hassle, i would get someone else to do it (and thats coming from a person who cant stand letting other people work on the car)

    Yeah! i'm the same if theres something that i can do i'll do it if i hav'nt done it before i like to give it a go.What i'm thinking of doing is getting me mate to come around as he is a mechanic to help me that way i can earn how it's done while we are doing it.Have'nt seen my mate for a few months and forgot all about him till now but thats how we are wont see each other for quite awhile then he will ,or i will ring and ask can you come give me a hand with this or that.

    If the series 2 does have a different auto, then it would be the GM Hydra-Matic 4L60 (also known as TH700R4) from the VP, instead of the one listed for the VN which i said before: GM Turbo HydraMatic 700 (THM700)

    Either way, its a 700 not a 350.
