Default 4l60 rebuild kit advice
I'm looking to get my current 99k mile transmission beefed up for a pretty good price by a local builder.. But I will provide the parts. Can you guys reccomend me the best rebuild kit for the best price? One that will allow 3 to 2 downshifts and a lot of hard *** driving

We have a kit that we sale. It has a lot of parts, some custom piston and billet servos. Here is a link to my website for all the info. A word of advice though, if you are trying to save a few bucks by building it yourself, it usually ends up costing more in the long run. Let me know if you have any questions.

Basically interested in what I even told you with my converter question.. More street racing then track racing.. Beating the hell out of my car.. Able to hook ok on the street and have maximum top end pull.. That's why I asked ya about the low str and three disk lockup.. What's that kit good for as far as horse?

A lot of variables are involved, so hard to put an exact rating on the kit. But I would give it a conservative 500HP rating. The 3 disk would be a viable option if you plan to keep adding and use the Nitrous shot. We can do a 258MM design that will have a 3600 flash and great top end pull. A low STR as well for good street manors.
