My buddy rode in my Express with the 80E and I was just driving it around normally and he asked me if the trans was "BUILT". 60/65e and even 70E are TURDS compared to an 80E or 85E.

Sounds like a tune issue to me,

I just run what I have and it works.

I put a 7lbs boost Radix on my 05 ECSB @5k and a 1st gear thrust bearing failed @40k.
Had a local beef it up and got 30k.
I boost it every time I get in it.
Transbuilderguy is building me a Level 4.5 now.
