From my research they tend to be a little weak under abusive conditions. I read about them blowing up. I guess thats why many guys for for an aftermarket unit. Just my 0.02 cents.

Not sure on HP but I'd pass on it. I only like to do things once and get it over with. I could of picked up a G80 really cheap(80.00) but passed on it. I'd rather pay 400.00-500.00 for aftermarket unit. As they are proven to be twice as good as a G80.

FLT sells a good billet servo i beleive. They are a sponser to the right.

Its a simple swap, you can access it on the outside of the tranny w/o dropping the pan... do u know how to install it? If not, i'll try to find some articles for you on how to do so.
