I installed a transgo shift kit.....vette servo....and a bigger boost valve.....9 clutch pack...and it was well worth it.....night and day difference....

Thanks for the info guys! Def will be putting this onto the parts list then. Unfortunately i prob will not be doing the install due to the DD nature of the truck and the fact my roommates would freak out if i did any thing like that in the backyard lol so i will prob wind up getting it installed professionally.

Don't be worried about the install...it's really easy even if you haven't ever worked on a transmission. Takes about an hour of work.

If it wasnt for the fact the roomates would go ballistic at the thought of me tearing into my new truck I would do it. But its due to that and a lack of tools is another reason to get it done.

Really if you are going to take the time to do it, go ahead and spend and extra $40 dollars and get a billet super servo. You will not be disappointed.

What is the cost more less to go with a Billet?

Ive seen some billet servos for like 30 bucks.....think it was on summit.com

I would not run a billet one, you will be fine with the Corvette servo. The billet will hit too hard/harsh. Look here.

The billet is way better. It is a little higher, but has 35 percent more apply area than the Corvette servo. The Corvette servo is only like 7 percent over stock. It will not cause it to shift too hard at all. Not sure why you say that. The apply area doesn't make a transmission shift harder, it makes it crispier. There are several options on a servo, Superior and Sonnex make the best, bottom line. http://www.superior-transmission.com/Product_Page.cfm?ID=121 check that link out for superior. http://www.rhino-transmission-parts.com/4l60e-problem-solvers/ is my site, check out the differences in the servo's. If you really aren't penny pinching, get the 4th gear super hold servo also. Your 2/4 band will love you. The vette servo is better than stock, but the billet is way better than either.

Well, I was just going by what another transmission guy (older) told me, definitely not from personal experience. That is why I chose the Corvette servo, but may upgrade to the Superior one.
