My lvl 2 is holding GREAT in my heavy *** crew cab, boosted 4wd launches, mid 12 sec. 1/4 times, 8k lb trailers, etc etc. Almost everyone I know that has a pb lvl 2 loves it. Not deciding which one is best for you, but don't worry about the performabuilt reliability. It will take what you have right now just fine. I would feel safe with your combo with another 75-100hp and the pb level 2, if you plan on more than that, then you might as well go 80e.

yeah thats his truck 
im not planning on staying cam only...i will be putting a 150 on it i think. plus i think imma end up going FI later on. the truck makes over 400hp im sure of it...but on a 150 shot i know the lvl2 will take it! but when it comes to a 76mm front mount w 3.5 or 4" exhaust...built 6.2 i dont see the lvl2 holding up like i want it to
i can live with the O.D ill be going with a 305/50/20 when its time for tires so it'll be a little better highway mileage too. Track will be a 28" slick MAYBE a 30" slick depends how it runs as it is.

From a roll it might be as fast or a little bit faster than the 60.
But at the track, forget about it. The 80 is a slug out of the hole compared to the 60. It needs a huge stall to get out N/A.

I am not a fan of the 80e in a N/A setup...robs to much power and 1st gear is crap
if you turbo it then go 80e other than that a built 60e
And also a stall for the 80e is expensive as hell

i will go front mount after the truck is paid for. N/A will just have to suffer...i dont mind though. if i throw a 150 shot on it until it goes turboed it'll live. atleast i know the truck wont leave me on side of the road bc the tranny went out.

i would really like to see real world dyno number on a 4l60/65/70e VS a 80e on the dyno.
4l60e 167 lbs
4l80e 255 lbs
cant be no more than 10-20hp at the absolute most

i just wanna see some N/A times with a 3000-3600 converter in a CCSB...if it puts me a 13.2 @ 101 imma be upset and wanna set my truck on fire. if im 12.9 @ 107ish hey fine with me. my truck isnt a track queen plus the roll races are 25+ anyways so my 60' doesnt really matter considering 25mph im at 3-3500 now i dont recall.
