Default Shifts glides when tranny shifts???

I called the dealership were they told me that they rebuilt my old trans, but found out that they put aluminum accumulator pistons in. Now sometimes my trans shifts fine, but other times the trans. glides when it shifts? I dont know what the heck is going on. I am putting a large trans cooler in on Wednesday. I know that a programmer isnt the best way to get the best performance out of a transmission, but after thinking of it I dont want to be jarred around with a shift kit. The thing i want to get rid of is that glide when it shifts because it doesn't feel right. It use to do it really bad until I uped the line preasure which help out for a week or so, but know it is starting to glide again. Would the help of a corvette servo help out? A guy at a trans shop told me that they should come stock with them? I really need help!

jarred around???? if it doesn't try to break something on the shift, it doesn't shift right.

I would do a TransGo shiftkit, installed conservativley it won't be harsh. I have a very tame shift in my truck with the kit and billet servos. The vette servo will help out a little, but the shift kit will help out even more.

I say go for the TransGo, vette intermediate servo and billet overdrive servo.
