60-110 4th gear, LS2 '06

132,805 miles on the clock.

You should definitely check into it and see what could be wrong. It seems slower then I remember a fully stock V being.
Compression test can be a good spot to start out.

Odthetruth has a LS2, you know. If I have time tonight or tomorrow, I'll do a run and post it up.

I can shift into first and 6th. Thanks for the picture really appreciate
Check your differential bushings while you are at it. Specifically the front diff bushing and see if it isn't in shambles. A trans mount helped largely remove that feeling, and a diff bushing removed the rest of it once I noticed my front differential bushing looked like chewed bubblegum.

If there wasn't salt on the roads I'd make a new video of just 4th gear. I'll post this mostly just because I like posting videos of my car. Lol

are you guys really telling him he needs to rebuild his motor at only 120k miles? this isnt an LT1 or a ford 4.6 lol. My Ls1 TA had 145k hard miles on it when i did the heads/cam swap, and still ran great when i pulled the motor to drop in an iron block 6liter. as long as the compression test comes out good i wouldnt bother with rebuilding it.

and heres a vid of my '05 70-125 with a slight uphill. only mods are xpipe and cutouts. 90k miles

I don't think he needs a rebuild based on the performance. It's slower than some of the other times but the LS6 is not as stout as the LS2's posted in the midrange of 4th gear.
