Default Shift kit/servos/stall are in and it runs! Pics

So i was pretty nervous since i haven't tore into an auto tranny since my ATI days about 9 years ago, so i was triple checking everything i did. Didn't wanna start it up and the thing not move or make some crazy grinding noise and lock up. Installed a Yank PT3200 Transgo hd-2 shift kit, aluminum forward accumulator piston, aluminum 1-2 accumulator piston, Transgo seperator plate, Corvette 2nd gear servo, Sonnax Billet 4th gear servo, new filter and pan gasket.
Truck actually drives VERY well. Taking off from a light only went up a few hundred rpm's. Backing up into the driveway feels funny. Now just waiting on my valve springs.

hey i just bought the same shift kit for my 4l60... how were the directions... easy to follow? i have done a couple th350's and one 700R4 but never a 4l60. i downloaded the video from the website and it seems easy... how was it for you? also where would i buy the corvette servo? why upgrade the servo? does it provide a firmer shift? thanks!

It was pretty easy. If you've done an auto tranny before it's really easy. I got all my stuff from "built408" here (post #2).
More area on it for more holding power on the band.
