Default Performabuilt Level 2 tranny holds 678hp/763lbs

678/763

416ci Virginia Speed Built LS3
Performabuilt Level 2 4L60E
Nitrous Outlet plate kit

Big shout out to Virginia Speed for building my motor. I overheated it by accident (left the ewp unpugged) and it hit 262 degrees and spewed coolant everywhere. Then melted a spark plug. Motor still clicked off a 10.82@125mph in a auto GTO without the nitrous. It ran a 10.25 with it breaking up pretty bad because of the plug. Car has a good shot at running a 9.

Thanks to Performabuilt for an awesome tranny!

Big shout out to SNL Performance in Haslet, Texas for continously working with me to make the car faster. Those guys are great. If you want great customer service give them a call.

Had Nitrous Outlet install the kit and I'm getting nothing but compliments on the setup. It looks nothing less than fantastic and worked the first time out. They did an excellent job on the install.

Went to the track for some shakedown passes yesterday. It was cutting out real bad and and melted a plug. Think it's too lean or has too much timing. I'm going to work on correcting that. It still went 10.25. Transmission didn't even skip a beat on the 4 passes I made at the track or the 4 dyno passes I made. Even with that much torque.

My goal is to be the first GTO in the 9s on a 4L60E tranny, 17" wheels and bone stock suspension. I got a Performabuilt tranny on my side

Very impressive, that's why I'm saving my pennies for a Level 2 come income tax time. I've done my research and stories like this just reaffirm my decision.

Thanks!
