Default shift kit and servo

i was going to get the transgo hd 2 and 1-2 vette servo. is their any other servos that should get replaced? How hard is it to put in the shift kit myself? Does anyone have a manual to put in that i could look at before i get it?

I went ahead and put in a billet 4th servo, but it isn't necessary. I did it because I do tow often. Just more holding pressure. It made me feel better and I was taking the servo apart anyways!

If you are not experienced with shifts kits you better find a good step by step guide.

I went with the Sonnax Performance Pack and both super hold Servos. No Transgo stuff.

Lovin it.

Your gonna pay in the upper $300.00 range for the parts.

If you have low miles it's ok but if you have high mileage you may want to coinsiuder a full build including the bearings and frictions.

If you have a Tune in the transmission have it put back to stock with the Sonnax stuff. It does what you want in the hard ware and a tune will screw it up. You can tweak shift points later and if anything else needs dialing you can do it later also. But put it in at stock pressures and settings.
