Default Vette Servo installed....

I just installed the Vette servo + longer pin ........ WOW what a difference. I had already tweaked my shift pressures and TQ managent and now my 4L60E trans feels like it has a shift kit. Awesome mod for $27 in parts...pretty easy to install too

cool, i just did the corvette sevo,the transgo hd2, and the tb converter yesterday. it feels like another vehicle. i can just smoke the 24's(from a dead stop) on demand. and the shift kit and servo make the tires bark real good going into second. how do you like that vinci cam? i'm planning on a cam and 243 heads in the near future..

This Vinci cam (116'LSA) probably has better low end power but less peak HP and TQ than the other ones with 112'-114' LSA. This is my "Wife's" Tahoe, so I had to worry about idle quality too. This cam has 2' advance ground in to make it peak at 5800rpm and idles almost like stock......... If it were my truck, I'd go with one of their hotter cams. If i ever have to take out the transmission, I'll definately install a TB converter or something similar....being able to smoke the tires would be cool

thanks for the info bbt. i'm thinking about getting a tr220 112 or a tr224 112. not sure which will be the best yet for my daily driver, but i want it to definitely be noticeable... my verter stalls to 2900rpms so i really don't think that the 224 will be too big. if any one has tried this already,please let me know.....

Yep, thats where I bought it (actually, from their ebay store). Just search on their site for Corvette servo (or vette servo). I installed the optional longer pin and recommend doing so since it all comes out anyway during the install. The guy from OPT said it helps speed up the shift due to less pin travel distance required.

The second one you listed is the correct servo, but I also have the longer pin...here's their ebay motors listing for what I just installed:
