    billet servo?

    I have a 03 5.3 silverado
    I had the truck programed and had the line pressure turned up but it still doesnt shift hard enough for me.
    I have been looking at billet servos but not sure what to get. Will ones for a 700r4 fit the 4l60E?
    Anything else I might wanna look into getting?
    thanks this site has been a great help to me

    Spend a little extra money and buy the billet servos from superior, Oregon Performance Transmission, Inc. or PATC ( 700R4, 700 Raptor Transmission from PATC, 700R4 4L60E 48RE 4L80E ) Buy a 1-2 and a 3-4 servo and you will not be disappointed. The transgo shift kit is a must in my books. You can also think about doing a Transgo 46mod vacuum shift modulator, it gets rid of the electronic transmission pressure regulator in the transmission valve body.

    I dont really wanna have to pull the pan yet. Will the shift kit make it shift harder? Or will just the servos do that?
    Also what would a boost valve do?

    Corvette servos are fine.. I have installed a Super Hold 2nd servo once and it was Way to much ... Customer didnt like it... As Far as shift kit... Trans-go HD-2 ... Sonnex is the maker of the super hold stuff...
