take your tornado out and your gas economy and times will probably be better.

With my Nelson tune on my 99 5.3 ex cab I am running mid 15's. All my mods are listed in my sig. I think he could break 16 at least. I also have 285's.

Depends on weather and how you stage up. I ran when it was hot as hell and didn't brake stall... ran a 10.6 @ 66mph... or about 16.5 in my Z. Mine has a decent amount of mods. I too run 285s...

E-fans, FIPK, tune, TransGo, Flow

99s are also slower stock and have lots of KR problems.

The corvette servo is in the transmission and it has a bigger piston then stock so it can apply the band harder. This keeps the transmission from slipping.

how hard is it to install one and is it a noticable gain ?

Install is pretty easy if you know what to do. Takes me like 30-40 min to do them now. The area is pretty confined so if you have bigass hands like I do, it takes a while the first time to get it figured out.

The snap ring to reinstall is the biggest pain in the butt.

Firms up the 1-2 shift, cleans up the 2-3 a bit. Helps with the kick down. For $9 it's a good mod.

Reply to this and I'll get ya links to an install How-To and where to order one.
