Ok probably a stupid question,but what does this vette servo do for our trans.Is it like putting a shift kit in a older th350-400?
Sorry for the throwback to the good ole days,Im used to carbetators and shift kits.

helps the band by giving it more holding power. It applies more pressure to the band which gives a better shift without lag and firms it up a bit while holding alittle more performance

Does it cause premature wear to the trans at all?

The change is very noticeable. The shifts are much firmer. I'm a lot more careful about how I drive now when the road is wet too.
