Im having hydraulic issues right now, and rather than pull the tranny and trouble shoot, im just replacing everything so I can get it done and over with. Once the old parts are off the car ill play around with them to see what goes in the trash.

did u make sure you line isnt near the exhaust getting heated? i dont remember if it was here or on ls2, but someone just wrapped theirs in heater hose and bleed it. Seems to be working out good for them. Also, did you do the drill mod?
