Default Gear/MPH/shift points calculator for 4l60 and 4l80

Here is a MPH gear calculator I put together when I was researching a T56/TK0-600 for my project car, I have converted it to compare the 60 and 80. It also shows the gear extension/drop between shifts to show how close the ratios are, however it does not take into consideration the amount of RPMs the Torque converter would eat up.

Just plug in the numbers you need, Oh and just type in the Red fields (tire size, gear ratio, and shift points).


Anyways I hope it helps someone, I know I am always looking for a gear calculator and I am tired of using the one on Richmond gear.

ok so im on a 29.2" tire shifting at 6600 1-2 but my speedo only shows 40mph where the calculator shows i should be going right around 46mph.
Click here to watch 30-60-75
is this because the converter is unlocked or the dummy guages we get? the speedo jumps on the shift too. is that just the speedo catching up?
