www.finishlinetrans.com...only a very tough and well built 4L60E will take the abuse of a turbo. You might even consider going to a 4L80E...

With what you have done to your truck a level 5 is what you need.

Hey Vince, do you have the 300M input shaft for the 60E yet? Would it be an option on the level 5 or would it come as part of the package like the 80E?

their level 5 is actually a 65e. from what i have heard, and you can call up FLT to verify, the level 5 65e will take about 500-550 rwhp.
