It might have already been mentioned but always replace or at least check map sensor and TPS. They can report back the wrong load calculations.

I was thinking of upgrading my 1-2 accumulator but it looks easy to do the 3-4 as well. Can I do both without removing the valve body? If I'm on my back on the ground, how would I hold the check ball up? Assembly gel? vaseline?

My wife agrees, we always make sure that o-ring is lubed up......😏. Now seriously, I'm rebuilding a 97 Tahoe for my wife and part of that build is making the transmission is better performing for the mild engine mods I did. Her Tahoe will be around 320-350hp and 400tq. Is a basic Sonnax upgrade kit good enough? Should I add their Corvette servos as well?

I'm confused. You plastering no spacer all over the screen yet the instructions clearly say for 01 and later to use a spacer. Later must mean newer then 01 cause right under it it say 94 to 2000 doesn't need that spacer. You said your trans is an 03 so that would mean that it does need the spacer given what the instructions are saying. So please explain why the no spacer all over the screen.

I'm sorry for the confusion during the video. In the instructions it cals for the spacer to be installed in 94-00 accumulator body's. I worded it incorrectly during the video, our transmission was an 03 but had a 94-00 accumulator housing thus why we installed the spacer. Again very sorry for the confusion of that.

It's the other way around, 94-00 doesn't need the spacer..... but you said yours is the 94-00 style so I got-ya now, all is forgiven. 🙂 I do have a question for you though.

Just had a 4l60e rebuilt and have went through 2 torque converts from the guy that rebuilt it but have the same issue every time. I get a very slow engagement when I go into drive. As if it’s almost not in drive until I reach around 1300 RPM and then it kicks in. Same for reverse. Then in OD, the RPM fluctuates 200-300 every few seconds unless I’m above 60. Any ideas what I can look at??? I’m tired of dealing with this guy.
