Damn that sucks, gota love those Junk *** 4l60e's. Ill never own another one in my life built or not. Ive came to the conclusion it doenst matter who built it, what its made of. If its a 4l60e it is simply junk.

Yours was a flt right? I know another guy that busted one of those tranies last year...

 

Well I can't go this weekend cause I have to finish my x-mas shopping, can't go next weekend due to celebrating x-mas in Hanceville at my grandparent's house, and the 28th through the 31st I will be in the woods hunting Rudolph and his buddies. So unless we do it during the week I'll have to wait till the next one.

 

Well, whether I've moved to Auburn or not, I guess if we plan another meet, it would be on the weekend so I could always drive back up. So it doesn't really matter to me when or where it is.

 

time for an t56 swap?

 

Nope, 4l80e will do the trick...

 

hey vann does that tranny have OD? bc i was thinking of the TH350 or something like that which is bullet proof even though it doesn't have the OD. How does the 4L80E do against the 60E? Is it just as crisp shifts and stuff? What about fitment is it a direct bolt on or what school me a lil bit bout these 80E's?

 

Yep it has OD. Basically all its a TH400 with OD. Supposedly they can take anything you throw at them. They come stock in the 3/4 ton trucks. I got mine from a 2000 GMC 2500. They dont really have to be beefed up to handle some serious power. The shifts and stuff can be controlled with HPtuners so they can be made to feel the same.

It is a direct bolt in but there are some things you'll have to moodify/get. See this:

I had completely forgot about those springs...

I went to the track about 3 weeks ago first pass went 10.3 an hour later and a little playing 9.8 about 30 min later set it on the bumper with a 13.2 haha all had 1.4 60ft except for the last pass

So far I have only got Motor passes off in street trim (I also had Chrome ZR-1s on the front it was classic)

I am not 100% yet still rich still needs tuned... but its about as close as i can get it for now, the suspension needs played with a little... I think it has anothe 15-20hp hideing, I had it dynoed and put down some impressive numbers for 241 heads and a 90/90 set up

 

I know a guy who can build it and do a damn good job... Mine has lasted for awhile...

 

Cool... Dont hold out tell us what the #'s were....

 

I live in the Arab Guntersville Area, anyone around me?

 

A little over 600. maybe you can help me on a tune sometime... I have a TPS problem that I know about which I should be fixing soon

 

So how is Gib's old car holding out, heard it likes to spin on spray

 

I havent sprayed it yet, been to scared........ I plan to soon though. I just bought a bottle warmer and wired it up. I think im going to wait untill i can go dyno that way i can get my air/fuel measured just to double check that everything is ok.

 

Saw your car sitting in town tonight. It's about time you have that thing painted Congrats on the numbers and the times.

 

Not to bad..I still remember making 626, Its a good feeling. What size shot you running? Also what the last digit 42x? N/A ran 9.8? That thing must be all stripped down and out... What wre the B/A numbers? Sorry for all the questions

 

where did you get the gaskets

 

Hey man i think i just decided im going to sell the 4L60E after its finished getting rebuilt and go with the 4L80E and see what kind of damage i can do...
