It is just a preference decision. The stock 5 speed and clutch will hold up to at least 200 more rwhp than a stock 4l60e. It's been proven. Just don't plan on many hard and fast 2-3 shifts with it. Once the synchros get worn the shift has to be pretty slow. It will stay together though.
If you plan on doing more than bolt-ons and don't wont to invest a couple grand in a good trans and converter then go with a 5 speed. Only a few mods, a good trans tune will help save a 4l60e.
