I am going to build a 4L60E, and over at LS1.com, I remember reading a post about what to upgrade in the trans, such as different amount and brand of clutches, etc. Let me know your opinions, please. Thanks, Shawn <img src="images/icons/grin.gif" border="0">

I don't know if you're looking to rebuild the trans yourself or if you're looking for a shop to do it. SO, I thought I'd throw out the group purchase that's going on with the level IV FLP trans. <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0"> The normal price is $2,200, but it's been reduced to $1,800. It's scheduled to run through the end of this month.
If you're looking to do it yourself, I know that Colonel has mentioned using Alto clutches when he had the 4L60E in his car.

I have heard 9 alto clutches and a kevlar band are all you really need, but I personally know absolutely nothing about trannies. Somthing about building up third gear; I think thats where the clutches come into play.

All i have to say is, dont have joe shmo's shop on the corner do it. Take it to a race/performance shop. I learned that the hard way. <img src="images/icons/frown.gif" border="0">

No more 4L-crappy-e's for me.
