Corvette servo install

[Egan]

First impressions are a much longer, smoother shift between 1 and 2. I'll reassess after the 12 mile drive to work tomorrow.

These guys have some pretty good **** for our trannies...few other things you can do w/ out yanking it out for 2-3 & OD. Plus 4l80 conversion kits if you realy want to say screw it.

Another great write up! This , to me, was worth paying 45.00 to have done.

Much firmer shifts. 1st lasts much longer.

There is alot of good stuff on there and most of it is surprisingly inexpensive

I assume when you refer to the 2-3 & OD, you are talking about overdrive billet servo?

well i tried to give a shot at this today, and i am stuck at step 1...well i dont have a heatshield to remove...

i can not get the housing to compress to remove the clip.
when you compress it, is the amountit compresses noticable, or are we talking thousandths of a inch here?

i tried using a pry bar.. that wasnt working and moved up to a crowbar.
i can get leverage on it, it just is not moving at all.

any thoughts?

It moved a good 1/8 inch at least, if not 1/4 inch.

ya, its not moving at all.

i tried putting a socket in there and trying that route... no luck

i have an open shot at it from the wheel well, and tried using a hammers handle and slapping it to break it free.. still no luck..


going to drown it in some WD40 and let that sit for awhile

It's definitely worth the money. With the right amount of throttle the first gear pulls well and shifts smoothly.
