Well guys plain and simple im just not familiar with these new 6 speed auto trannys like the one in my new truck, like i was the 60e in my 06. does anybody know if there are the weak links in the trucks like the 60e's were in the older models? I eventually plan to magnacharge this thing but have no clue of the limits of these trannys or what it cost to build them.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!!

Well I managed to screw one up in less than a year, turns out my 6L90 has a seized solenoid.... won't shift into 1st when in D but will drive just fine when in the manual option. Other than that I really like the 6 speed. Circle D has some good upgrades I'm looking into for the new trans.

Several weak links:smaller clutches, weak hub/shaft with low critical speed, TCM inside the tranny. I think the main problem is in the tuning. The tuning is so commenly screwed up that several of the larger transmission builders have quit building the 6L80.
The Circle D recommended upgrades will include larger Red Alto clutch packs, full welding of the hub, and 300M shafts at a cost of +/- $3,000 not counting the converter.
OH SNAP! Well I'm not needing upgrades to that extent, I'll just be happy to drive it again.
