I have 100% of TM taken out and it's not all that bad. The shifts do bump pretty good when you get into it though.
At 85% of TM removed it was fine to drive for everyday. I just wanted the extreme of 100% TM removed.

Yeah, but you already have a 4L65E Jim! I really don't care if the POS 4L60E goes out, but I want to have $ saved when it does. It's my daily driver and don't care to borrow back my old Z-71.

It will not shift hard with minimum TM removed. The firmer shifts are better for the clutches and plates in the tranny. Smooth shifts = slow wear.
Even the Munday Chevrloet service manager agrees with it.
Not that says much but it does hold truth.

Beau I have a shift kit in my built trans and a vette servo along with the line pressure bumped up to aorund 80psi at idle which is about as high as you want to go and 2 washers in the accumulator with my stall and it isnt harsh at all. You damn sure now its a preformance trans at part throttle 1-2 but its not bad at all and after a day of driving oyu wont even notice it anymore.
On a side not look at this ****
for those that arent motor savy thats a broke second compression ring that ******* cracked while I was filing it to fit the cylinder so it seems I hit yet nother road block on the road to finally getting my truck back together
