Default FLP 4L65 Level 5

Will this tranny get me into the 11's without fail. I know the 4l80 is a popular mod but Iwant to avoid all the hassles of crafting it back together. Please advise. Thanks

I have ran several 11s with my flp level 5. I will be pushing it alittle harder soon trying to get to low 11s.

Is this a simple plug n play replacement for a 4l60E? i.e no fabbing or additional parts required

It is a direct swap.

Sounds a lot more attractive than all the work involved with the 4l80e swap even with the kits that are available. As long as the built 4l65s will stand up to say 550-600 fwhp and similar torque over time I would rather go that way.

That is encouraging if it is a 4l65. Please advise.
