Nice! Sounds like there is a 60e that has survived. I'll agree that there are other factors that lead to the demise of a trans.... Would you take a built 60e over an 80e if cost wasn't a factor? Just curious...Originally Posted by casey23

IDK if i can awnser that question... I HAD everything to build a bullet proof 4l60 even with a transbrake... but when i bought my motor it came with a 4l80 trans swap for near free.... so i went that route... so when it was my choice i went to an 80e .. not that i am really happy with it... I built this truck for a Great buddy of mine with a 4l60. My goal with his truck has been 11s... he doesnt seem to think thats possible after looking threw the boards. After building it and adjusting the tune on the street the very first pass was 13.60... by the end of the day truck went 13.1X on the motor.... nothing taken off and still easy tune ...

I see alot of hotrod trucks with good power..... all between 12.80-13.20 with 4l80 swaps.. so i built something with same power but with a 4l60 and it runs 11s?? Your right.. what a simple choice !
