Re: 6l60e
imagine how fast it will break cause its not any stronger than a 4L60E
pointless investment IMO.

Re: 6l60e
What about a 6L80E ? The 6.2L it comes with wouldn't be a bad idea either :lol:

Re: 6l60e
The new C6 'Vettes are available with the 6L80E. Also the STS-V and another Caddy. The new GM900 platform trucks will have it available (new Tahoe's, up-coming Suburbans and the rest of the pickup line).
If you read the literature, it ought to be a good transmission. The gear ratios are nicely spread (not the super wide ratio drops that the 700R4 provides). Once they become readily available and product support gets cooking on it, it will be a viable choice. I expect that it'll make the 4L80E swap look like a bargain though.....

Re: 6l60e
That would be a sweet swap.
When the time comes to buy the 4L80E im planning on running in the GT, ill have to see if i can find one of these and compare the prices.

Re: 6l60e
here's another link for info....
http://media.gm.com/us/powertrain/e...ns/2007 Automatics/07_HydraMatic_6L80_MYC.xls
the .67 6th gear ratio is a little disappointing considering its a 6 speed, the 4L70E is a .70 4th gear overdrive ratio but its better than the 4L80E .75 4th gear overdrive ratio.
Whats cool is the 222lb weight of the 6L80E, considering the 4L80E is a whopping 252lbs, but the big shocker is the 4L70E 163 - 195lbs (depending on converter size I guess?).
It seems that the 4L70E offers the best weight advantage and a final drive ratio that is better than the 4L80E.
