im going to be swapping out my current set up . 4l60 with a 3200 single disk stall. for a 4l80e with a 3500 multi disk stall i was jw if the truck will be slower, faster, or about the same as it is now?

 

about the same

 

cool, ive never really messed with them ive heard that the 80 does soak up alittle but i figure with the bigger/better stall it will make up for it.

 

Darnie did you ever run your truck at the track with the 60 and 3200?

 

no sir i didn't i was planning on going in February, but 3 outa the 5 trucks broke down including mine. I was also kinda hoping to get a before and after compassion but i will hit the track once i get the new one put in. I ended up getting a 4l80e from a member on here its a 2000 model 4x4 with 131k on the tranny. i plan on trying to go Turbo in the next year or so, my question is should i have a shift kit put in it now, or should i wait till i rebuild it for the turbo?

 

btw just noticed our trucks are about the same, you ever hit the track? also how do you like the gears?

 

The 4.56's are nice! Fuel mileage took a little hit. It's about 14.5 mixed driving. My truck weighs in at 5560lbs without me in it. I've been a 9.79 1/8th mile at 70mph prior to headers, converter, or cam.

 

ya, im getting about 21 on the " 65" mph high ways. i always debated gears. but i really wanto boost my truck so ive been told 373s will be the Dope bomb diggity for that. i do think if i can get it to hook " without breaking crap" at 3500 and or even just from a flash it should roll out pretty good. im stoked just hope it all goes well.

 

I can get 17-18ish mpg tops at 60.

 

ya, i usally dont even get 65 around here. so thats nice. but ya im stoked to see what that 3500 multi will do over my current one. should be fun. ill get some NA times tho b4 i go boost
