Re: TH350 Governor/Shift weights
Got the governor out of the car last night, it currently has a #2 weight along with another that is not stamped with any marking. Had an orange spring on the #2 and a green spring on the unmarked weight. See images.

Re: TH350 Governor/Shift weights
Just me but I would have obtained a couple of governors to experiment with and left that one alone and tag it with it's shift points.
Someone asked about a burnout with the auto shift. When I ran a T350 I never came out of a burnout in 2nd as that shocks the weak link in a T350, the intermediate overrun sprag on the direct drum. |
Re: TH350 Governor/Shift weights
In your case, I'd probably put a full , unmodified weight in there to match the other one, and try that first.

Re: TH350 Governor/Shift weights
Maybe this will help, according to my B&M instruction sheet the weights go from 1 to 6. 1 being the heaviest 6 being the lightest. the springs go purple blue green yellow orange red in that order. purple is the stiffest spring and red is the lightest.
First gear late shift excessively light spring on weight. High gear to soon excessively heavy weight. the plain steel unmarked spring looks like a stock factory weight. Dan |

Re: TH350 Governor/Shift weights
I would try the yellow spring with the #2 weight and leave the other alone. then test if to low try orange spring.

Re: TH350 Governor/Shift weights
Number 1 weight and a purple spring! Should get you down about 600 rpm. Looks like one of springs is green. Change it with a purple and if you need more change the other spring if you can tell what color it is. According to chart the heavier weight will change shift approx 400 rpm Springs move approx 100 per color up to 600 total. There are 6 colors in the kits.
