Idiots. Keep calling around and searching for someone who is familiar with installing the Transgo kit in the 4L60e.

well they are partially right. When you install a shift kit you need to reprogram the pcm and remove torque management. If you dont do that every time it shifts the computer will sense a hard shift and retard timing/fuel untill the level comes down, than it will shift to the next gear..
As for hurting it, no it wont (actually makes it a little stronger/less slipping of the clutches) so get it installed and reprogram the pcm.

ps i see you have the predator tuner, i think that can remove the torque management.
