Default She's Ordered.

The Vette servo is in shipment also.
I'm going to make a dyno appointment today.
The Radix should arrive before July 4th weekend.
Going to Florida for the 4th and will try and setup the install for the following Saturday.
Then another dyno run.

I dont think a vette servo is going to be enough to handle the power of the radix happily. Just my .02

True. You may want to get the full Trans Go HD kit.

I dont think a vette servo will help even a stock 5.3/4L60 combo

You will be fine Rock, just look into future transmission upgrades. I am running on just the Vette Servo and 20K flawless miles on the truck. Radix went on with 20 miles, right off the dealership lot!!

My '60 lasted quite a while with just a transgo kit, accumulator pistons and a servo release check valve....although it was just starting to get a little sloppy right before I had the built '65 put in. It all depends how you drive it.

On another note : congrats on the purchase - you wont regret it. I have over 15k on mine with ZERO problems.

Default Thanks Guys,

I am not real hard on a vehicle. My romps will not be a daily thing either. We will see. I still have 26k on the factory warranty too.
