    nah no shift kit, I can always add that later, i have the vette servo currently but wanted to upgrade to the billet. This was just a big excuse to get the TB stall lol. But I also wanted to go beefier than the lil 60e! I tried making it home in mine, i made it 3 miles with grinding every time i let off the gas!

    I've seen where you can pick up a brand new 4L65E with new converter for $2270. I wonder if it will hook right up without any changes.

    65 should be a bolt up. The mods are internal. When you mod a 60 to a 65. Use to work at a tranny shop.

    Yeah, some of the valve body stuff is different but I wouldn't think it should affect anything. I wonder if the electronics of a 65 are identical to a 60.

    The input shafts on the trucks are different than the F-bodies right? & I think the case is beefier or something, at least thats what the guy at the local tranny shop told me. That's why I was thinking maybe the F-body had the L65. I guess it's just wishful thinking huh

    Basicly a 65 is just a beefed up from the factory version of a 60. Gm just tried to fix some probs and complants ppl had. If you take your 60 to a tranny shop and they update it like they should you will basicly have a 65.

    If I remember correctly the shaft he is talking about is on the early verions of the 700 it had weaker and smaller shafts. That is why when you look for a replacement 700 in jegs and summit they list them from a certain yr up that they build them out off.

    the electronics may be a hair different, on hptuners there is a selections for what tranny you have, maybe the signals are just a hair different, who knows. Or maybe they just put that there for shits and giggles.

    Well it turns out my rearend blew up and took the transmission with it. So guess what, I get a new rear end to go with it. I wanna stay with 3.73&#39;s, anyone have any suggestions for an aftermarket rearend or should I just get this one rebuilt?
