My VB seems to be missing some valves

[Blown&Injected]

Have I found the difference in my BQ11 and the BR valve body?

The ASTG did not show these parts:

Converter clutch throttle valve
Converter clutch shift valve
and
4-3 control valve spring
4-3 control valve

it was also missing a spring, but the directions in my kit say to leave that spring out anyway.

Only early 200-4Rs in non-ecm controlled vehicles came with the TCC valve train. Also, 200s never had a 4-3 control valve assy. 700-R4s have a 4-3 sequence valve train though.

The missing spring is probably your MTV upshift valve spring. The factory did leave those out.

Thanks for the VB lesson. I wish good answers were this easy to come by on all subjects and topics!
