ya, i admit i didnt listen, i didnt expect trannys to only last a month, it was never an issue b4, i learned quick, the only reason i got a built 60 & not 80 was that i was in a pinch & needed a truck back on the road quick, even with that said people are having performabuilt's hold up to more than im putting them through. im not gonna hot rod a caddy around, gonna be a dd & all show. i cant do the work myself so im not gonna mess with an 80. just sick of/ discontent with the avalanche, its a love hate kinda deal, i dont wanna see it go but i will be glad to see it leave. the only thing keeping me from getting a 07+ truck it the $, im gonna buy a 05 ext with ca$h, if i get a new one the 80 will be worthless because i wont have the $ to have it tuned or even put nicer wheels on it. i just wanna make sure a 60e trans wont explode just driving a caddy like my grandpa would, i just cant count on friends to do an 80 swap, its hard enough to get help just doing little things, the gto i want has a 6 speed so the 60e wont be an issue
