Default 4l60e lasted only 12k miles.....

Yeap like it says. Gonna go get my tune pulled tomorrow and the stock one loaded back in for insurance purposes. Slipped pretty good on me on the way home tonight. Eventually will get around to a 4l80e swap. But who knows if theres any difference in the swap from a NBS and the NNBS?

Yeap, its better to build for what your going to do to it and strengthen what you can before you start upping the horsepower and then have a failure that could cost more than if you would have just strengthened in the first place. Its not an if it will happen when your playing with horsepower and torque (especially with a heavy *** truck), but when will it happen.
