I had that kit installed and they did not have to remove the tranny... I think the only thing that requires you remove the transmission is the highrev spring kit..

Its probably worth the 150-200 bucks to have a professional do it..

I have a very reputable transmission shop do I mine for 200...

That included corvette servos, overdrive servos... and other misc. parts..

They did not have to remove the tranny for my install. I payed someone $150 to install my Transgo and Corvette Servo.

I paid $1300 for my install. I will soon see if it was worth it as soon as I fix my broken rocker arm.
