I've heard from a couple of guys that there is a lot of performance drop from a 60>80 swap.. Is that true?? How can you prevent that? Or how can you bring that power up again?

Get a converter. That will def help! I lost power but a converter will compensate for weight and power!

I already have a Precision Industries 3000rpm stall in my 60e.. Will that one work?
20% loss of performance thru the drivetrain (on top of the performance loss in the drivetrain with the 60???

60e stall wont work and an 80e. And no, you're just looking at a little bit more drivetrain loss with an 80e as compared to a 60.

60e will work just fine if your under 500 hp...but an 80e is just added insurance.
and remember the more abuse you put a tranny through the more likely it is to break.

so i went to the track, with my 60e and 3600 stall i ran 7.50 in the 1/8th on a 200 shot....yester day i went 8.0 with an 80e stock converter on a 100 shot....so i would say you dont lose anything.
