we have fbody being dropped off friday for 4l60 rebuild. Guy just did h/c, stall, exhaust, cai. Trans lasted a month and half him beating on it.
4l60e are hit or miss one will last on a boosted car for years with no issues and another will **** the bed on a bolt on car with the cost to do 4l80 I wouldn't even waste my time with one. But a buddy had a 4l60e in his boosted Tahoe making 740hp and it last Damm near a year with a 152k on it and just a shift kit getting beat to hell.
LOL yep, GM guys all over refer to the 9 inch as the Pontiac design
You have a Ford 9" in your Camaro Sorry that makes you mad.
The 346 LS1 is a copy of the windsor but with better heads and COP.
See how easy it is to say unsubstantiated ****?
furd copied the rears... end of starry. The 8.8 even takes 12 bolt bearings. The 12 bolt has a guess what size ring gear.....8.875. The Pontiac pumpkin style rear was a 9". So it looks like that is very much substantiated.
Now if the ls is a copy of a windsor......why was the windsor so shitty? Wouldn't the ls be shitty to?
Why would gm copy a windsor that was already inferior to a sbc?
If the ******* windsor was so ******* great i would be able to buy a k-member for it to fit my Camaro. But i can't. You know what i can buy?? K-members to get rid of that junk *** windsor for my mustang.
I dont really give two ***** who designed it. Im looking for ways to go the fastest this car, the most reliably, and not spend a fortune (doesnt mean im cheaping out, just means im not spending extra in places where its really not needed). I was given an 8.8 housing. It'll be going to a local OKC fab shop with a factory 10 bolt to be mated to the axle tubes and all the brackets moved over. It's a 31 spline out of an Exploder. Unsure of what gears in it or if its a factory tru-lock.
yep last I knew he went 7.3 in 2018 and last year he did mostly no prep and 1/8 mile. haven’t seen a faster slip yet.
His name Jeff Zerkle? If so I'm pretty sure he showed me the 7.0 to 7.1 slip. He said he was tryn for a 6.9xx then going to convert over to strictly 8th mile bc that's where the money is. I'm tryna get him to come to the rental.

Not sure if you can see the mount really good, its the only pic i have with it out of the car. I wouldnt use the factory differential. I replaced mine with a ford racing unit, it looked a lot beefier.

I may do that down the road. Factory housing should be plenty for the time being. Im fairly sure it is a nodular iron housing. I havent actually put my hands on it yet. A friend of the family builds alot of restomod Mustangs for a living and he ended up with this in trade. Going up there in a couple of weeks and ill look at it.

I'm not talking about the housing, I was talking about the limit slip differential.

Youre truly retarded. You're talking about a decade of engine technology between the two. That is a long time one came out in carb era the other in Fuel injection era. That alone will net better gains and more efficiency of the engine. Windsor bore spacing is close to that of a LS engine. You can infact bolt up a LS head to a Windsor with some work. Hell a shop was wanting to out hemi heads on a Ford Windsor engine and he then realized how similar the bolt pattern was to the LS engines as well hence why you can buy a hemi head for the LS. Cooling passages, cam operation, and intake is different between the two yes but at the end of the day Sean makes the point clear. You're just too stupid to comprehend it. Windsor is just as close to the design of an LS engine as the 12 bolt is to the 8.8 or the Pontiac 9" is to the Ford 9".

I'm smart enough to know there's no reason for gm to copy a Windsor when the sbc was already better.
You can bolt anything to any8wuth a little bit of work.
No the the ls bore spacing isn't the same as a windsor......but it is the same as a sbc. Identical even. Weird eehh.
Like i said if the Windsor was so ******* good i would be able to buy a kmember to bolt on in my 4gen or any other chevy. But i can't. I can buy swap errythang to put nearly any chevy in any furd tho. Weird since it's such a copy and even the ones that your dumbass don't consider a copy can be swapped also.

You truly love showing how ******* stupid you're. Case in point I never said the Windsor and LS have the same bore spacing lol but since you married your sister following in your dad's foot steps you seem to think I said that.
