Lots of L owners have them. They seem to like them, maybe one of them will give some input.

What transmission are you refering to. I have installed many factory tech valvebodies and seperator plate kits. I specialize in the torque converters for either transmission and complete builds of the 4r70w/4r75 transmissions. I can pretty much tell you anything you need to know about those. The valvebodies in general are not available for most of the 4r70w transmissions (excluding early versions which still require a complete valvebody for strength reasons). The plate kit is a cheaper more effective modification which is completely reversable making the entire valvebody unnecesary.

I put one on mine, and my truck was noticeably firmer shifting. I even chirped into second gear once which is a lot considering the tank I'm driving. Apparently it serves to firm up shifts to keep the tranny clutch from engaging so long and creating heat without having to up the shift pressure and stressing the fluid pump. Heat is bad for tranny.
Anyway, I put it on myself with basic mechanic tools in my driveway. It was pretty easy, but messy with the fluid going everywhere despite trying to contain it. I love the kick in the pants it gives you during shifts, especially at WOT. I recommend it!
