You'll be back up in no time.
i think it has a lot of high $$ hard parts but i dont know anything about trannys. i believe it was one of chucks first level 5's but before he called them level 5's. here is what flp has to say about the level 5. >>

"Got a forced induction or nitrous truck that is making serious power? Is your truck in the 10s or even faster? Then our Level 5 4L80E is for you. Currently the fastest LS1 truck in the world(10.65 @ 132.35 mph) is running one of our transmissions. Making 1000 foot pounds of torque this truck is driven daily and raced almost daily as well with out a single transmission failure. If you want the best transmission possible for your truck look no further than our Level 5 4L80E. $3600"

hmm, they might have to update their site

LOL! Good point! Maybe it will be some part that can or needs to be beefed up and the rest will hold fine. Tranny's are no fun.....

Maybe a 4L100e would be the next step.

4L60E to a 4L80E and then to a 4L100E. Sounds llike a logical progression, each one 20 better than the one before.
