You also have to be careful with the friction and steel count, as it varied by trans model and year. The 429CJ trans has the highest count for 71 with 5 direct, 5 forward and 5 reverse frictions. Make sure you get the correct count when you order your parts, or order a couple spares. Since you're shipping to Europe, you should also order a thrust washer kit and the intermediate servo piston.The 71 shop manual has all the details starting on page 17-10-25Generally what you'll order is a "master kit", plus the intermediate servo, a bushing kit (if they aren't in the master kit) and a thrust washer kit.<a href="https://www.transpartsonline.com/TRANS_PARTS_FILE/tpcat.php?TransPartsOnline=C6&amp;TransPartsType=C6" target="_blank">https://www.transpartsonline.com/TRANS_PARTS_FILE/tpcat.php?TransPartsOnline=C6&amp;TransPartsType=C6</a>I've used Trans Go T36169 shift kits in several C-6 cars and was happy with the level of shift firmness. It'll bark the tires when you you have your foot in it, but drives normally the rest of the time.</blockquote>
