It looks similar to the B&M shift thing, it just raises the trans line pressure if they are similar.

If you are considering those two options, I would look at a TransGo shift kit with a 'Vette servo. That would work way, wyay better than either of those two optinos you mentioned. My favorite thing about that kit is fix of the 2-3 overlap shift, it makes it very clean.

You can also adjust the 1-2 upshift with the washers included to get fimness you are looking for...from quick and tight to neck snapping.

It would probably run you ~$100 for the kit + $15 for the 'Vette servo + ~$150 to install. Upside is a smarter trans, much cleaner shifts, and a longer lasting trans. Downside is costs considerably more than you are probably looking to spend.

I know this is old but it is the only one of its kind i found.
Anyways what about using the trans tuner in conjunction with a shift kit? Would that be to much line pressure or would it be a good thing?

too much line pressure which is why more people dont go with the B&M shift kit (from what im understanding) = 4l60 being dead very soon so i would not say do both unless you want to do like an 80 IMO

To hardh of a shift is to bad. Raising the line pressure to much with the PCM alone is to bad too.

If it were me ... TransGo hands down! I'd stick with the billet servos and conservative on the transgo or slightly more agressive with the shift kit and corvette servos.
