Default Broke now what

Tore up my 4L60e pretty good. Most hard parts are f-Ed up. What should I do? Get a built 60? Swap to a 80? Or swap to a t56? I track it only a few times a year. Problem is I can't find any T56's around here. I'm from Canada eh so WTF. I really want to get this thing going but I don't want to do **** twice. Advice would be good..... Thanks

lol... canada ehhh? that was funnny...

anyway it all depends on what you want...t56 plus a good clutch is going to cost you... a built 4l60e will cost you, but less then a conversion+ good clutch for sure. If you want a manual thats up to you but a good clutch will cost you 700 bucks and then if you track it you will likely blow the 10 bolt... an auto should make the 10 bolt last... atleast a bit. You could grab a flt level 4 for around 1700 bucks right now.

Ya I'm thinking more twards t56 should be fun for me. I know it's gonna cost me. That's why I what to do it only once, if I could find one. I'll probably end up buying a complete car hopefully wrecked and part it out.

Yes, other reason is your basically new to the site.

Think it takes 50 posts or 3 months if I read right.
