thats exactly what I got... just dont forget to change your filter while you are at it... might at well and its cheap. What kind of fluid do you run in there??? I use B&M fluid but I am wanting to change and try something else.

doesnt really matter the brand of fluid as much as when u change the fluid that matters, imo, i would get a big cooler and change it every 15,000.just my 2.

What's involved when installing all of the parts?

drop the pan take out the valve body and follow the instructions... you should be fine...just take your time and I dont know if its been said but have a little vaseline handy to keep the check ***** in place when you are messing with the valve body... I havent done a 60e yet but this is just a good rule of thumb for any auto tranny.

i wouldnt advise a shift kit i havent read all of the post for yours but i wouldnt go with a shift kit. i had 3:73's and with my kinda drivin and a shift kit i flattened out those gears. weird i kno. then after a while my transmission went, valve body and 3rd and 4th gear burned up. the electronic transmissions are programmable, and you dont need a shift to make a 4l60e shift the way you want it to. this is wat i did on mine and it worked better than a shift kit if you ask me. i took the cap off to my soleniod there are two wire a C and a D wire. take one of the wires, whichever one is easiest to get to splice another wire to it thats long enough to go thru your floor and hook it to a toggle switch and mount where ever you want. flip it up and the transmission shifts firm, flip it down and the transmission goes bak to stock, accept for me i messed with mine a little bit. i torqued down my soleniod and then did the switch. i got it to where my truck will cherp goin into 3rd not a lot but for an ecsb thats pretty damn good if you ask me. i have the print outs somewhere of the solenoid if you want them i can email em to you.

I already have a tune that firmed up the shifts, i just want them to be more consistent and the last thing i want to do is cut and splice wires that control my transmission. Just doesn't sound like a smart idea. I'll stick with Transgo.

Would replacing the lockup solenoid make the lockup hold better? And should the filter be replace while i'm in there?
