All of the above plus add a trans cooler if you don't already have one (Radiator does not count) but you can series them...

Are these all available at Oregon performance?

Or do you have another suggestion?

After looking at the installation instructions for the sonnax performance pack. I believe that is beyond my abilities at this time.

What would you recommend I do in the mean time?

I just don't want to damage my perfectly working transmission by making a small mistake. I am very comfortable working not the engine. The transmission just scares me

Read the directions at least twice before doing anything make sure you understand them completely and follow them closely, and dont rush through it and you will be fine!!

I found a local transmission guy that I have used before he said he would charge $350 labor for filter, pan gasket, Fluid for doing a transmission service and installing the sonax performance pack and corvette servo. Is that a fair offer? I have to purchase the parts still.

Let me know what you all think.

Honestly that price isn't too bad. Although it's possible to do all that on your own with a basic tool set in a couple hours.

Most shops say it's a 7 hour job. I have heard back from a few others now too.

Does it really only take a few hours if so Christmas break is coming up. (I am a teacher) I might take a crack at it.
