Would anyone know an approximate cost of labor of either replacing the entire 4L60E? This would include removing the trans and rear suspension, and then reinstalling.
Thanks.
Thanks.

i think the last one that did under warranty paid like 7hrs lbr including flushing cooler lines, i think u might look to spend $600-$1200 LBR too bad you don't live around here i'd do it for $500.00. what's wrong with the trans in there?

Thanks for responding GMTech. My vette has 550 or so hp engine. The transmission was rebuilt several years ago after loosing the 3-4 clutch pack. Back then the car had about 450 hp and I manually shifted it a lot on the street and Road America. Well, the 3-4 clutch pack failed again last fall. I will either buy a Level 4 tranny or have a local transmission shop rebuild the existing one, this time with a better clutch pack. I'm selling the car after that so budget is a concern but I also don't want to give the new owner a lemon.
