Engine/Transmission Maintenence that should be done by 85,000 Miles??????

What should be done by now outside of new air filter, oil changes, etc.? A transmission fluid change? Valve job? I'm running custom tuning, 2.7 pulley, 60's, catless dp on a stock sssc exhaust. Car is an 05 LSJ.

Thanks-

iirc gm says the trany is fill for life, however id change the fluid at that milage, wont hurt anything. with a 2.7 id also consider changing the s/c oil. it supposed to be service free but it is being spun much faster than originally intended.

Trans fluid change.

Brake fluid flush(theres no spec for ths from GM but virtually every other manufacturer in the world has a service interval of 4 years or LESS, I say every two years.)

Getiing close to a coolant flush, spec is 5/150 miles but I like to do it by 100k.

Passenger compartment filter(every 30k miles or 2 years)

Supercharger oil(50k)
