We have also done a 09 Denali Sierra with a 427 with a tvs2300 at 15#s and a 75 shot with the stock transmission and converter but it only has a few thousand miles on it. I am curious to see how long that ones gonna last

iirc it's bottom end is built quite a bit better than
older lax designs in turn handling boost better

plus it already has great flowing heads, and factory intake. Sure those help with a cam too but they are pretty key for fi. Willing to bet 2tone would have never had ringland issues had it not been for det issues and leaning out

i doubt it as well. My old escalade had a stock motor with 15#s and a 75 shot and 80k miles. these motors love boost and n20. ls3 more so because of the heads and intake imo

If you feel like sharing what parts failed when your transmissions failed. Are you braking parts or burning up the clutches.

Thanks & Sorry for the Hijack

I havent broken any hard parts but just clutches. The T Case shattered like a granade. I went back to pick up pieces of it but there were no pieces bigger than an Iphone....case and gears and what not
