Default 6.0 and 60E question...
Will a mild cammed LQ4 toast a 60E? Was gonna throw a TransGo and some billets in and hope it would be ok. Is that too much to ask for??

the 65E seems to hold up to it well, but not sure how well the 60E would handle it. wouldn't take much upgrade to make it work though if it did break.

My first one lasted 23,000 miles with just a shift kit. About half that was with with a supercharged 5.3 and the rest was with the supercharged 6 liter. I think you would be fine for a while.

Get a big tranny cooler in there and shift kit
keep a little torque management in there if you want it to live for a while
