Great info here by the way..........

Slightly beefed up 4L65E... which wasn't much more than a beefed up 4L60E.

That new 6.2 will supposedly be offered in the Denali and certain trim level Suburban... I do hope they put it in the next generation SS.

I don't see how considering the Vette is a transaxle car... not exactly a bolt in idea when you think of how different of an appliation that is. For that much trouble you'd be better off just building up a 65E to handle the abuse IMO.

one of the magazines I looked through at wallmart tested the new escallade. I was amazed at how fast that thing is!!! 14.8sec 1/4mile @95mph.
