I'm probably trying to piss up a rope here but thought I'd try anyway. I have a brf core here with a br3 valve body that has been rebuilt at some point in time and appears to have a shift kit installed. Last time I had to do this, the owner kept the springs and I was able to undo it with the brf exploded diagram on gnttype and it matched perfectly (also a br3). Trans has definitely been apart and the plate has been drilled and springs swapped but it does not appear to be a performance oriented shift kit. Here's what I know:
Mtv down spring replaced with one bearing 2 tan stripes
3-2 control replaced with a red spring
Accumulator valve replaced with a tan spring
PR spring is unpainted and appears original as do the .472/.270 boost valves (these fought me hard to remove, as if they'd never been out even when they did the trans)
Obviously the tv exhaust checkball removed as well as the 4th accumulator checkball
Accumulator springs are red (1/2) and white (OD) and I don't know what came stock
All the tv valve train, line bias, etc seem to be untouched per the diagram on gnttype.
Seems to be a "local shop" freshening as it does not have a pinned governor spring or an extra clutch in the OD pack (which I can see is toast) but does have a hardened stator and seal retainer in the pump. I have not gotten deeper than that yet, need to keep the core whole until my buddy is ready to order parts. I'm thinking it's the low performance superior (non hd) kit but can't find instructions for it online. I know it is not any of these kits:
Either of the 2 b&m kits
Either of the 2 transgo kits
Tci kit
Superior/Fairbanks HD kit
Because I have the instructions to all of them. That doesn't leave much except the art Carr kit or the low perf superior kit because I'm SURE none of the veteran builders out there would assemble anything like it.
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance
