Shift Kit

How much should a shop charge me for installing a shift kit?

Does anyone know how much it would be?

I would think its a couple of hours - $130-$200. Add another $60 if they change the fluid. But, given the transmission is all electronically controlled, I don't know what they would be installing - except for a Corvette servo, which is a lot cheaper - I don't believe you drop the pan to change it.

I'm surprised that you feel like you need a shift kit after Justin tuned your truck. I haven't installed a corvette servo yet (don't know if I will or not), but Justin has the line pressure adjusted where it is almost (ALMOST) too hard.

 

If it were me, I would do the servo first and then see if I still wanted a shift kit.

 

 

Have you tried calling some shops to ask then about prices?

I haven't called any shops for quotes on installing the shift kit yet. I have the Trans Go shift kit & vette servo waiting to be installed. I also need to install my SLP 160 thermostat but I'll do that myself. Reason for installing the shift kit is to protect the transmission, I like how my truck shifts after the Black Bear Tune. I couldn't stand how my truck shifted on stock tune.
