Decisions, decisions, decisions, another broken 4L60
I think this is #4 or #5. The car was dynoed yesterday they made two pulls with no issues. I got one run in last night against a h/c/n2o Z06 from about a 45 roll and I lost drive after the run This was about 30 miles away from the house so I rolled around 45mph in 3rd on the freeway all the way to the house
Time to decide on going with a th350/400 or 4L80. The trans is not happy at all when the spray comes on

Yeah after I blasted my 5th "built" 4L60E I made the switch. I got sick of fixing them and spending $$$ and having downtime.
Even a bone stock 30k mile '80E out of a wrecked 03 GMC Safari cargo van has held up better in my 30th, for several thousand miles now. I wish I'd have swapped sooner.
My new FLT Level IV 4L80E that just came in (going in on Wednesday) should never even blink !

My trans guy who is also a good friend of a buddy offered to fix the tranny for free. I'll give it one last go since it is not going to cost me anything but if/when it breaks again i'm swithching to the 4L80. Car made 650 tq on my small kit so I don't see the 4L60 holding long especially when the big kit comes on.
