Call them they are always willing to help to get you where you need to be Andy is who will probably answer and his customer service is second to none,all the builders there know there shit. I personally have a 4L65 lvl 5 and I love it ,every part they say there putting in is there and I know that for a fact .they go above and beyond where others won't if you go FLT I can promise youll be happy and I'm not affiliated with them in any way I'm just a very happy customer
If you honestly don't mind dropping the dough on one, then go for it. I have a FLT 4L65E and I have been driving mine for 2+ years with no issues.

I sent a PM earlier this morning, and already I have a reply. It basically says that since GM chose the 65 over the 60 for the 6.0, that's why I should go level 5. It occurrs to me that the elevation I live and drive at affects engine output, so I researched that. It seems I lose 4% per thousand feet. I live at 4500 feet, so I'm losing 18%. So, 380 ft-lbs times 0.82 is 311.6. That's right between a 4.8 and a 5.3. A level 3 should do. But I want to tow to the Olympic mountains, ( among other places, ) and the base of those is near sea level.
Looking at FLT's info, compared to level 4, the level 5 adds a billet 4th gear servo, but I don't tow in fourth, ever. It also adds 5-pinion carriers, which aren't needed below 450 ft-lbs.
Anyone comment on a level 4 with an LQ9?
i need to invest in one of these very soon
