Default swaping to auto what should I upgrade.

Hey I am swaping out the m6 for a 4l60e. I am running a sts gt67 turbo and can't handle the lag and spool up after shifts. I was wondering what I should change in the trans prior to install. I don't really want to strip it all apart just thinking corvette servo and trans go stage 2 shift kit. Would it be worth doing these mods? I was going to run a 3500 or so stall, truck pan and big cooler.
Thanks,Chris.

I am up in Canada so getting one from a sponser would be too much shipping back and forth for the core. and stuff. I think 4l80 is probably a bit overkill and they are super heavy.

It would be to your advantage to upgrade internals as well, especially running forced induction. Some parts from the factory just simply arent that strong. Shift kit and cervo will help, but i would be concerned with the reaction shell and the stock fiber clutches. Assuming your going to use a 4l60E
