Thanks alot Warren, I appreciate you looking out. I am going nuts deciding on what to do and who to get it from. Never thought I would be pursuaded in so many ways. I have an offer on the table in the for sale section, looks like a decent deal too. I need to get moving cause my cousin just picked up a lightning and hes talking smack

Hey man

Price is great and the vig 3600 has put some stock internal cars into the 11`s on drag radials.

To be honest I cant believe knowbody has picked this up yet. hehe. If I wasnt doing this 4l80 conversion it would be in my car.

heres what the guy on ebay said

Hello, This is a regular 4L60E not a LS1 version, At this time i don't have a LS1 but if you want to send your unit i will be glad to build it for ! The shipping will be paid by me round trip with the Tmax converter for 1025.00!

What the hell is a Tmax converter??? must be cheaper without it

Buy a unused converter, and have your trans done up by someone nearby, Marco. Believe my experience--I have been down this road before..... (Old Guy--you know?) You will be much happier. Funny things happen w/transmissions AND rear ends. Person performing the work makes ALL the difference here. Best of luck and spend your $$ wisely. WJ

Yeah I think i made my decision, I'm just waiting on buddy from SRA to call me back to go over everything. Hes 15-20 minutes from my house. If something goes wrong i can bring the car to him. Hes giving me a 1 year warranty, where most are just giving 6 months, and if something goes wrong from the mail order trannys i have to ship it out. this is just more convient and I have confidence he build me a solid tranny.


Now I need to buy a converter, I have to get that new too or I'm gonna kick myself in the *** if something is wrong later. Offaxis's vig 3600 looks like the best deal going. That will save me the money i was gonna save with another tranny.

Cousin just bought a 2000 Ford Lightning and hes talking way too much smack for a stock truck. Cant wait to get this tranny and rear end in, car is gonna haul ***

I eat the Lightnings for lunch. There's a couple of good heavily modded ones around, but the stockers w/changed blower pullies and drag tires usually are low 13 second, or very high 12 sec. sleds. offaxis Vig 3600 is a great deal. New they're what? around $800 shipped? Has that trans guy you know done any performance 4L60E's?? WJ

I think that "RSA" is the guy that built Marks trans. (firstandgoal)??? If so that is one of the strongest 4l60 I have seen. He runs low 10s @ 3800 pounds.
