So who is still making healthy power and 4l60
 
Just curious who is still running a 60 in there truck that is making moderate power.. :hmmm: I see alot of guys doing the 80 swaps.. So who's left on the 60 besides my self?

I'm still running a PB Lvl2. I have a 5.3, heads, turbo cam. S475 10psi for now. I would estimate around 500-550 rwhp for now till I'm on 12psi.

Got a 60 in both of my trucks. No clue on power, but the crew cab Sierra probably puts more stress on the trans. than the Colorado does, just because of it being twice the weight. I'd say as of recently, the crew is putting down high 3-ish. Nothing special.

The 60 is a time bomb man! :bomb: Im jumping on the 80 bandwagon as soon as I can afford it! :jest:

I'm still saving for the 80 swap. Hoping the 60 holds together long enough.

Im not making crazy amounts of power but I have a ton of weight and mine is still ticking. And when that one blows/wears out another 60e will take its place. :D

Probably putting 450/500 to the rear in the Tahoe (hopefully dyno numbers this weekend) and the trans has never been out (save for my mishap when I was stock and got a cheapy wait4me tune that toasted my clutches, luckily was still under power train warranty). Upgrades are vette servo, sonnax od servo, aluminum accum pistons, transgo hd2 shift kit and hardened separator plate, tru cool 40k cooler, and 70% tq management (which I think has made all the difference) left in.

I’m about one of the most unlucky bastards there is, yet I managed 75k on the original 65e before it started flaring on the 1-2 shift and have about the same amount on the FLT LVL V 65e that I installed back in ’06 with nary a hick-up. Maybe I’m just unlucky with anything besides a vehicle? Ya’ll know the song……….Fat wife – no life – yada – yada – yada!

i have an 80 sitting on the stand in my garage now... It only took 1 trailer ride for me to give up on the "built" 60s...

properly built and maintained a 60 is a great trans.
