Gas 6.0 2007-2008 2500 HD Transmission question
I am looking at getting a 2007 or 2008 extended cab GMS or Chevy truck, the one that comes with the 6.0 gas engine.
Does anyone know what transmission it comes with? I am going to put all the parts that was going to go into my LY6 swap in it since that truck has the same engine.
Thanks!

Thats what I was thinking but read this
http://www.edmunds.com/chevrolet/sil...hd/review.html
Standard on all Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD pickups is a 6.0-liter V8 that makes 360 horsepower and 380 pound-feet of torque, paired to a six-speed automatic transmission. The burly Duramax 6.6-liter turbodiesel V8 that puts out 365 hp and 660 lb-ft of torque is optional. Its standard Allison six-speed automatic is well-suited for towing and hauling large loads.
I have read also that it has a 6l90.....

I have to resurrect this thread. A friend of mine called me up asking about gutting the cats on his 2007 2500 HD Silverado... Gas, 6.0L... he tells me it will be cheaper for him to gut the cats since he has an Allison transmission... I thought that was different/unique... an allison behind a gas 6 liter... didnt think much of it (figured the guy knew what he had, since he bought it brand new), I just chalked it up to expensive cats/indiv. Y's due to the unique powertrain/drivetrain combo...
I got online to order him a tune that will shut off the rear O2s so we could go forward on this project... naturally filling out the mail tune form I began to wonder...
He says it has an Allison, he requested an Allison at time of purchase... come to think of it... the 2500 hood side vent badge says "Allison" on it, but somethings weird about this... so I had him send me a picture of his RPO sticker in the glove box... MYD (6L90E)...
At this point i'm completely confused...
Waiting for him to take a picture from under the truck of the trans, to confirm one way or the other... but what the hell? How often are RPO sheets wrong? Would a dealer really have the nuts to sell him an allison upgrade for a fee and simply just swap out the hood badges? Flip side... would a dealer really have the nuts to install all that stuff and modify the truck / take responsibility like that?
Was the truck in an accident before the sale, and whatever body shop did the work, assumed the trans to be an allison since its a 2500? Do horses wear socks?
