    Going to buy a stage 2 shift kit in near future, and will buy 2nd corvette servo, just wondering what other little bits and pieces are worth swapping/changing etc bands, springs?

    Any help with this is so much appreciated and can these be brought from holden or aftermarket? if anyone got part numbers or prices on pieces let me know

    All info is appreciated thanks :)

    shiftkits are eaisly purchased and installed at good automatic transmission places, this includes the upvanmped internals and im sure they basicly recondition the whole transmission in the process

    corvette may be GM but its not holden so you say shift kit to them and they'll probably just laugh TBH

    bit of ringing around and you should be able to snap up a good price

    Yeah didnt explain myself clearly i dont think, i know shift kit and servo aint holden line, wouldnt buy from there anyway

    Just wondering about other things that are required to give the trans a bit of a tidy up and keep it running healthy for kilometres to come

    Will be installing it all myself with some help from my dad, so only after parts
