Slow Reaction Time down with no Electronics?

(1/3) > >>

GlennLever:
I had a new valve body put into the transmission and the Pro Brake in it is quicker than the one on the old valve body.

Up to now have never had a red light when running a Pro Tree, this weekend I had three, (2) .375's and a .380.

Need to slow the vehicle reaction time down with no electronics.

I'm going to try a longer throw button.

Suggestions?

Spud Miller:

 A long throw button with an adjustable collar/sleeve is a must-have.
 
 Some valve bodies have a "hit control" knob on the back. That would help.

 You could change how you're leaving the line (lower the RPM, etc.) since you have power to spare and could still hit your target ET.

Currently have a long sleeve around the trans brake button with the contact point right at the top. (home brewed invention by a good friend. Going to try a shorter collar around the button so I have to depress it further (his suggestion also).
