You speak engrish?

On a serious note! Yes the hidden gear is between 2nd and 3rd. You will notice it will shift a lot quicker if you place the gear selector in between 2 and 3..

They have a bunch of hidden gears. All accessible through the tuning process if you have the right passwords

Who are you calling an a$$hole?? You come on here and ask a question, and it gets answered. Yeah, you may get teased a little. EVERYONE dose. Get used to it NEW GUY. Maybe if you asked nicely, you can learn HOW to access this feature. BUT calling "senior" guys a$$hole's..... Good luck with that. You joined in July of this year..... is this your first LT1, or Z28????
I have (and so have others) had BOTH LT1 cars, AND LS1 cars. The knowledge I have learned on here from others just by using the "search" feature on the top of the page has helped me out ALOT.... give it a try. But if you have a poor attitude, word gets around fast.... people might not want to help you. That LT1 you have has a lot of issues, that can be fixed eaisly, and we would love to show you alot of tricks. One example, Opti Spark..... if you dont know any mods for that, good luck with it in the rain, or when it has its "fits", and it will. Hows that starter? EVERY book and other site has you drop the right side header, or exhaust manifold. I learned on here a way to remove nothing, and it will fall right out..... But calling names will learn you nothing.

It has 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th or OD. It should shift through them each time you take off from a complete stop with the shifter in 4th or OD. Is your ? answered now?

Welcome to Tech, there a lot of Good people here to help you with your issues. You will also find a Ton of Dirt Bags just like in any group of people. Please don't judge all of us by the Ignorance of a Few.

There are no hiddin gears to my knowledge, you need to get your trans checked out by a Good mechanic.

A little snappy aren't we? Of course someone is gonna give him **** for asking a question like that. Of course he is expected to retaliate a little. You seem to be the only person that took it like he kicked your dog lol. Don't forget you didn't join but not even 2 yrs ago yourself. Simmer down.

OK, NOW can we rag on this guy???














No, there is not an extra gear in a 4l60e.

4 = Four forward gears
l = longitudinal
60 = series
e = electronically controlled
