overall i can see maybe a 20+% increase in mpgs. 10% in just the torque converter mod alone.
research has revealed that you would need a seperate tranny fluid cooler, and remote Filter for the torque converter lockup mod. this is due to the increased heat.

i recommend going to coloradofans.com they have lots of technical info on our trucks.
what is the torque converter lockup mod?
and it is corevette servos. they basically up the line pressure and hold the gears better. they are a nice addition.
also, a tranny cooler...ours is built into the lower radiator. many guys like me who tow with a colorado add one like b&m and get about 10-20*cooler temps.

also, ditch coloradofans and go with 355nation.net. the info is more up to date and more reliable members to help out with any problems concerning this specific vehicle.

sorry, just rambling.
