I have to partialy disagree with saying there is no need for a shift kit. The major point is to reduce the inherted flaws in the valve body and allow firmer flow to the clutches. Also there are steel check balls that are replaced by lighter versions in the valve body as they were banging into the seperator plate and chewing it up.
Besides, its probably a good idea to drop the pan and replace the trans filter, why not install a shift kit?
As far as your trans being healthy, if your pulse generator/speed sensors, shift solenoids are good, and your transmission fluid doesnt smell burt, your trans is most likely just fine. Unless of course someone recently changed the fluid because they were trying to fix a slipping trans.

No need to buy any shift kits though unless you want to spend money. Get something to run full line pressure and you're set into the 10's.
