Did you do everything yourself? Just curious to how difficult you thought it was to install everything. Glad it turned out good!

Cool, I need to do this sort of tranny upgrade but I always hear the horror stories about these types of installs. I guess if i'm just patient and follow the directions it can't be too bad.

Default what about this!!!!!!!!!!

I'm gettingmy Transgo and vette servo in next week but I wont be able to get the supercooler in for a couple more weeks is this acceptable? I assume I have a stock cooler in already. I cant get out and check right now! What do you guys think aboout not getting the cooler done for a couple of weeks after the other install?

If you're upgrading the servos, use no washers. Be conservative with opening up the feed holes. Open the 3rd feed hole up as much as you can without getting into the HD/Race settings.

The cooler was one of the first things I did to mine, especially since I didn't have one already.

Does this advice pertain to billet intermediate and OD only? Or should we also use no washers with the Vette intermediate? General rule is no washers with either servo or what?

If it were me ... I wouldn't use any washers in mine. I would rather open the feed holes up a little more if the shift wasn't firm enough for me. The washer in there makes it pretty brutal, especially if you have good friction materials in there.
