Default Lamest question of the month: Corvette Servo

So, my tranny shifts pretty well for 96K. Leaving me with one of two things: Sometime during it's life, it's been rebuilt, or it has a Corvette servo (CS). Now, say I was going to get a CS, w/o pulling out most of the parts already, how would I know with in a few moments, that I already do or do NOT have a CS?

Like I said, really stupid question lol (Not that my other thread is much better)

Too bad the Vette Servo being used behind all the LT1s was common knowledge even BEFORE the 4L65e was released.

You trusting a magazine or a shady builder or what???

English perhaps?

Dwayne is asking WHERE you learned that the LT1-based 4L60Es didn't have the Corvette servo.

The Vette and f-body crowd gets a little hurt and doesn't like to believe the Grandpa cars got a lot of the same "special" parts.

The LT1 b-bodies got the Vette servo and so did the L99 9C1(cop cars).

I know it takes away from the specialness of YOUR car getting the Vette servo but get over it.

Drive to his home town and race him, if you beat him and have a faster car, that'll make your incorrect information and lack of english speaking and writing skills all right.

You showed him.
