curious as to the answer on this question as well.... anyone?
I just ordered the superior shift kit and super servo set, will update everyone...shop does alotta race engines so they won't work on it without hooking it up to the puter first and evaluating the trans while I drive around. They're telling me you may cause the tranny to wear out quicker by changing the servos out because there is a change in the dynamics of the tranny bc of the new servos?

Dang.... Sounds expensive. How much did they quote you for the servo install?

So I got my servo yesterday and I have my case of RP. I called the transmission shop and they want $100 for the flush and $65 to do the servo.....WTF. I think I will do it myself, who has done it and how did it go?

you cant do the flush youself, that requires some vacuum equipment. However dropping the pan, changing the filter, and adding the RP should be good. (if you have a deep pan i think its like 5 quarts, 3.5 i think for a shallow pan... dont quote me on those though) Im pretty sure this job is a pain in the ass, if i recal, there are a few obstructions making the pan drop difficult
As for the servo, i have not done this yet as i am having some tranny issues i think, so i am holding off, however i have heard that it is a fairly easy and not to time consuming of a project.

Earlier this year, I tried to install my servo on my 2003 Yukon Denali b/c I couldn't get my @#%! heat shield off. So, I've had my servo sitting on my shelf since then. Coincidentally, this week, I called around local transmission shops to get quotes for the install. Here are my findings:
Shop1: $100 (but they barely spoke English, so I'm not sure they knew what the hell I was talking about)
Shop2: Refused to install customer-provided parts due to liability issues.
Shop3: (ie, Moore Buick Pontiac GMC Dealership): $428. No joke.
I guess my servo will be collecting dust for a bit longer.

the corvette servo is actually pretty easy to install, it takes a while, but all you need are a few basic tools, i was scared to do mine at first but once i got started it wasnt so bad, i just did mine last week actually

Once you get to the servo, yes, I've heard that it's fairly easy to install. I'm guessing you're not aware of the heat shield setup on 2003 Yukon Denalis....
