Stock Flash Stall? What will the stock LS1 converter flash to when nailed on a set of decent street(non DR) tires?
Also, I was questioning durability earlier in a stock LS1. Most guys on here blowing these things are....not stock. Has anyone killed a 4L60E before 100K miles in a STOCK APPLICATION (LS1). (This does not include people who do neutral clutch drops and other wierd crap).???
Also, how good would a driver in an M6 have to be to beat an A4 with an avg driver at the strip? (Cars = other than tranny).

stall on a stock A4 4L60E is 0
it doesnt flash and your 4l60E can take a beating... it is RPMs that kill it not power so it seems after i have ready many disscussion on this board.
i installed a tranny cooler from B&M to just make sure it runs cooler and extend life. it is very easy maybe 1 hour at best.

and basically i beat most 6 speeds that are equiv. to my car. There are exceptions where people know how to drive thier 6 speed very well so i lose.
from a roll your will lose, from a dig you will win more often then not. put a 3600-4000 stall on that bitch and you will roaSSt any M6

The stock stall on a stock 4L60E is not 0. Its around 1200 with about a 1:1 STR. If your mostly stock and have less than 100k it will last you probably until then. I bought my car bone stock, first time I floored it, it pegged the limiter on the 2-3 shift hard, about a month later the whole tranny gave out, this is right at 100k.

eeek. 1200 with a 1.1 STR?!?! Holy crap. Even the 99-04 mustang GT's would stall to 2400 and my POS AOD would Brake stall to 1800. I am thinking DEFINITELY M6 at this point.

I'm in Florida, I know plenty about hot. I know a LOT of people who run stalls as DDs. Get yourself a cooler (I went with B&M 24,000) and you'll be set. The cooler costs about $50, and takes roughly an hour to install (It's *VERY* simple).
I love my auto, I had to spank 2 M6s (on the street, from digs) yesterday. One 423rwhp TA, and one LS1 GTO. Had we went far enough the TA would have caught me, but we could only take it from 0-90 as traffic wouldn't permit.

Not really. I have a vid of a car stock, and with a 3500 stall. The shifts are weaker. The only thing faster is takeoff. It drops to 4K rpm each time, but TM kills it with the tq converter and getting rid of TM hurts the tranny, I am about convinced to go M6 after all this

My car is faster at any speed, period. I have no TM, and good shift kit in a built tranny. Whether it be from 0, or 100, my car is faster than stock, by a long shot.
You dismiss shift extension as not being a big deal. Well, it IS a big deal, and it helped me keep up with a 420rwhp SS from 15-75mph. I am making around 325rwhp. Power isn't everything.

The stock stall for a 4L60E is approximately 1250RPM. Not very high at all, I'm sure thats in the interest of fuel economy and driveability.
