Default 4L60E vs 4L80E

alrite heres the deal i have always had problems with the 4l60e in my z28 and my Z71s but mine jus went out in my Z28 and im sick of buying transmissions so should i go with a built 4L60E with high flow valves n a solid servo n stuff or go with a stock 4L80E, the 4l60e will cost me about 2 grand and the 4l80e will cost me about 3500 which one is more worth it.

I went through 14 rebuilt 4L60E with the local guys all warrentied since they couldn't get them to last but a few months after a year of this i bit the bullet and got a 4L60E stage5 by FLT my car runs high 10s low 11s all day and their trans has been in my car for 3-4 years and it is currently in a friend of mines car since i parted out mine and is still there and strong so depending on how strong your car is i say get a built 4L60E from someone like FLT and you wont have any issues we also put a 4L80E in my other friends camaro and it fits fairly easy so if you go that route its fine also basicly its on you bud so good luck
