A Great Engine Tune, Fighting a Stock Trans
More power with the same shift points and lockup behavior means harsh shifts, converter shudder, or a transmission working harder than it should. We tune both together, not one and hope.
A cammed engine or a fresh power tune with an untouched transmission calibration is a vehicle fighting itself.
We tune the trans to match what the engine's actually doing — shift points, lockup, and firmness, dialed in together.
This is the part most shops skip — or don't know how to do at all.
More power with the same shift points and lockup behavior means harsh shifts, converter shudder, or a transmission working harder than it should. We tune both together, not one and hope.
Plenty of tuners hand you a great power tune and shrug at the transmission side. We calibrate shift point, lockup, and line pressure in-house — same visit, same screen.
A cam swap changes where the power actually shows up. If the shift points weren't remapped to match, the transmission's still guessing. We fix that as part of the build.
Shift tables and lockup logic sound complicated because most shops never walk you through them. We turn the monitor to face you, show you exactly what's changing and why, and answer whatever you ask — mid-edit if that's when the question hits.
Others hide their knowledge like it's sacred magic. We explain it to you, because it's not magic — it's understanding what engines do.
One customer had his cammed LS truck's shift points and lockup recalibrated to match a fresh cam — and watched every table change happen, live.
Shift RPM, firmness, and torque converter lockup behavior recalibrated to match your engine tune and driving style.
Added a cam, more power, or a full engine tune? The transmission side gets remapped to match — not left on the factory table.
Smoother daily shifts or firmer towing behavior — tuned for what you actually do with the vehicle, not a one-size-fits-all setting.
We rebuild most GM transmissions in-house — everything from a stock daily-driver rebuild to a full performance build made to handle real power. Rebuilt and calibrated together, so the trans is actually set up for what the engine's putting down.
"Went to Michael for a driveability and shift tune after some knock issues. He showed me everything on the laptop before and after. Truck shifts right and runs right now."
"Cammed LS truck, shift points and lockup remapped to match. Feels like a completely different transmission — firm when it should be, smooth the rest of the time."
