Valve Body and Towing?

Been thinking about doing the valve body for my L, but, I use my L to tow about 7000lbs pretty regularily (which it does with no problem).

How would this thing act under towing situations? Would I have a real firm shift when towing - that I don't think I'd like as it'd definitely be felt through the entire rig. With the valve body mod if you are not "on it" does it shift reasonably smoothly? Or does it always shift firmly, even under light throttle?

Thanks!

I towed L.Ls last Lightning (Full weight) on a heavy trailer, with my Factory Tech VB, and didnt have a problem.. It only kicks hard, when your deep in throttle.. Just rolling into it while towing, its not bad at all.
