Default vette servo question

does the servo have to wear in for a while in order to get used to my trans?
the builder told me the trans has to do this , ive driven the truck now for 3 days and i have a wheatley tune too he says he should bring some thing back down to stock. The builder says he bumped up some pressure . i am in the middle now i like the firmness. i dont know the long term effects i was told the servo is good for the trans. off the record the builder is saying his trans should last as long as i own the truck.


any thoughts on this ^

theres nothing to "wear in" per say.
you should be able to feel the difference from the first drive.

and if he says the trans should last as long as you own the truck, does he warranty that

If you have a tune with elevated pressure and also a trans that has elevated pressure then yes I'm going to say this is not such a good idea. As far as the builder saying something has to break in. The only thing that comes to mind would be the finish he puts on the drum. Honestly I use new drums often and do not mess with them out of the box unless it looks like a mirror. Then I will turn it on the lathe with some paper to break the glaze. If a used drum is used I will turn in on the lathe with a little sand paper to give it a nice finish.
