Default simple trans upgrades???

I have a deep pan I got for my previous truck (2001 rcsb 4L60E) and was going to use it and the filter on my new truck (2008 ccsb 4L60E) just wondering A: if it will mate up, and B: what other small mods are do-able with the pan off or other trans mods that are quick and easy... not looking to do a shift kit just yet... servos maybe? stuff like that...

The only thing you do with the pan off is shift kit and filter I think.

Servo's are on the side of the trans.

The deep pan adds about 1 quart of ATF. The filter is different between the two. A great mod is installing the Corvette servos. Do a search and you will find a lot of info on this.
