Those kits are generally some springs to make the shifts harder and engagement of the clutches quicker and a bit more positive. No more slip sliding in gear

Stan, if your trans has a kickdown cable, make sure it's adjusted properly. When it's adjusted to loose it gives sloppy shifts due to the lower oil pressure in the trans. Also if your trans has bands make sure they are adjusted right that makes a big difference in how it shifts
