Whats the part number and where can I get one?

Any Chevrolet dealer carries them... I am sure they have them available the day you go in.

I just got back from talking to my mechanic and he said that the servo is bad ?!?

"We don't guarentee your transmission even lasting through the test drive when we finish" he said.

According to him, it will wear out my transmission and cause it to break down earlier.

I know Magnus and Fin have/had them and their trannies seemed fine...

Maybe I'll hold off on the servo and just get a chip to firm up the shift points?!? (if they are THAT risky to install)

I never heard them being bad or a potential threat to your transmission... I'd like some more opinions on this...
