Boost + Vacuum Modulate Tranny?

I have a Stage III 4L60E which has a vacuum modulated valve body- if I added boost to this setup- what would happen?

Is there any sort of regulator I would need inline to the transmission- how does this work?

Just brainstorming things here.

Mine works great and Im running 10# boost. Tranny (4l60e) never shifted so good, getting the computer out of the line pressure business is the way to go.

A check-valve in the vacuum line between the mani and the tranny is all you need.

Thanks, that's basically all I needed to know.

You could put a check valve inline or put a relief valve to the atmosphere. FLP ships (at least they did when I bought mine) a relief valve (basically a check ball in a tee fitting). No issues with line pressure.
