Trans build for governor spring upgrade?

Trans build for governor spring upgrade?
I want opinions on transmission life after 3 or 4k governor spring upgrades.
Is it necessary to build the trans to handle the extra RPM?
Does the engine make more power after the 2250rpm fuel cut?
I'm just nervous to grenade the trans as my tranny is dead stock.

If you are dead stock, your best possibility would be either a valvebody from HTS or Goerends, or if you feel like getting fully into it a trans go shift kit. This will help this transmission live, and will give you a much better performance. Even after the transmission dies, this is an upgrade that can be cleaned up and reused on the new transmission depending on how the builder wants to go.
Technically you don't need an upgrade just for the GSK, but in all reality you need to upgrade the transmission right off the dealers lot...........

Wider powerband means longer time between shifts. A 4k will just give you more time than a 3k. But if you aren't racing at all, you probably won't ever get to 4k rpms. I have been told the 4k fuels a bit harder than a 3k, just because it is a little tighter. I wouldn't know, as I've only ever run 4k.

Thats why they make HD valvesprings.
