Default 4l60e to replace slipping 4l65e

Hey I’m having trouble with my transmission in my 04 Escalade ESV do you think a rebuilt 4l60e with beefed up internals and GM Corvette sevo would last at least a few months until I can get a 4l80e? Thanks in advance for your help and time

Depends on how its built and how you drive, A 4l60e can be built to hold 1000 plus hp . In fact i get people from time to time switching back from the 80e cause they hate the way it feels .

It was built to hold at least 550 hp because that’s what my built lm7 is pushing now so that was my request when it was built but crazy enough the 250 thousand mile stock 60e is still holding on for now and my Escalade is my daily completely stock and I don’t drive it hard
