    Yes i am. See my post count. I have been around a little while and built numerous 60e transmissions and burned up factory units with nothing more than a tuned 4.8l.

    I would go for a stall before a lower gear. Gotta remember there are plenty of guys blowing 300+ of nitrous out of the hole with these transmissions. About the only trans better is the 400 but you dont get the OD gear and the 80e is basically a 400 with OD, a few more parts to wear out. The same guys that can destroy an 80e also kill TH400s. Where is Mic? LOL
