Two washers were added. We drilled A,C,D,E,F,S it looks like from my notes. I think some holes were the right size already. Very firm street and strip is what we went by.

What do you think about that vette servo and TG with no washers.

I like the Vette servo fine. Like I've said before I've never tried the billets and my tranny tech recomended I get the Vette servo so that is what I went with. It said for crisp use one washer. I would think no washers would kinda defeat the purpose of the shift kit.

Mine doesn't bark on the 1-2 shift and I have 1 easher in. I would at least do 1 washer.

On the holes ... it seems like I read somewhere that the trucks should have the smaller of the recommended holes so that the tranny won't bang when it shifts. The only hole I did that wasn't the smallest recommended was the hole labeled 3 or 3rd. It has a very tame shift under part throttle, and has a good quick shift at WOT.

My '01 Tahoe with Trans Go and Vette servo will bark 1-2 with 265/75-17 Z-71 Tahoe wheels. It shifts nice and crisp and I used one washer. The vette servo was available at my local tranny supplier so that's why I went with it. Been in the truck for almost 2 years with no problems to date.

I also have the vette servo with a transgo. I have one washer and the small holes drilled. It bangs pretty hard onthe 1-2 under normal driving and that is even with decreased line pressure under 18* tps via edit. Anything over 1/2 throttle and it will bark the 1-2 and will screech them pretty good at wot. I will be pulling out that one washer when ever I drop the pan for the next fluid change. The 2-3 is perfect, nice and quick without a harsh feeling as well as the 3-4 although it could be a little firmer.
