You have to BUY an adjustable modulator. The OEM Holley (gray) large modulator is not adjustable.

I don't 100% like the shifts I have, specially 2-3 (real soft). Have a part number that I could search around with?

Alright I turned it in one turn, still too soft for me, even cold it doesn't clunk into gear, so I will go one more turn tomorrow.

Yes, and it should be under 20 bucks.


WARNING:
Yes, it can reduce wear on your clutches by increasing line pressure, thereby shortening the shift time (clutch engagement time).

BUT, this comes at a cost. Increased SHOCK stress and load on the downstream components (axles and differential).

I think I have it where I want it. It'* not hard, but not soft. I believe it was 2-2.5 turns clockwise from stock. I'll try to get a video once I am done fabbing up my headrest mount for my camera.

This is what it does cranked all the way with a well-built trans and shift kit:

Notice the VERY light throttle. Camera is sitting on a rubber sticky pad. At half throttle, I can launch my camera when I hit 2nd gear.
