This is actually my first post and just wanted to say thanks to Allen his wife Lisa and last but not least John!!! Towed the truck down to San Antonio to have the 4l80e SE tranny conversion (thanks Sean, no problems yet, knock on wood) along with fuddle 3200 installed in the 02 sierra. Got there thursday night, parked the truck in the shop and they took me to the nearest hotel in the dragalanche. This truck is awesome. Started on the install friday morning, everything went great, we had a few minor setbacks but everything went pretty much to plan. The stock flexplate was cracked in 6 different places, the clutches and bands were gone, it wasnt pretty. Lets just say Allen knows is :turd: and I strongly recomend his service!! The truck was reborn with the nelson tune. The driveability of the truck is great, on the street and on the highway!!! I am getting better gas mileage than before, if I can keep my foot out of it!!!! The drive home from San Antonio was great, 03 GT pulled up next to me (exhaust and some bolt ons), we started at 60, he honked 3 times and I pulled him all the way to 120 he was about 2-3 car lengths back!! Tried to race him again but he moved over two lanes!!! I just had to put in my two cents in about the nelson tune!! Great Job Allen, thanks for everything

you must have one hell of a 4.8 to pull a 03 GT that hard from a 60 roll...does the 80e help that much up top?

When I had the 60e, me and my cousin who has an 03 gt (exhaust and bolt ons) he would only get me by a car on the highway to 120 after that I would just fall back!! but I dont know if that guy knew how to drive, he looked young!!! I dont know what nelson did but top end feels way better than it did before!! Im still learning about the 80e and what it can do so maybe somebody else out there can answer about the 80e top end????? Mine feels great
