1st tranny all stock 4L60e 5.3L full bolt-on's 31000 miles, died 1500 miles after Procharger install.

2nd tranny 4L60e B&M shift kit, Vette Servo, Yank 2600 Stall slipped all the time but manage to get me to 43000 miles only had converter on the tranny for 6000 miles.

3rd tranny Current set-up installed last week, FLT Level 5 4L65e, Vac. Modulated, Precision 3000 stall its been working great so far but I know this tranny will meet its maker eventually.

Like Slow said you ain't cool till you blow a built 4L65 so "I'm working on my cool status"

1st, Built 4L65- Cammed LS1- Blew the pump into pieces, leaving me stranded on I-10 at 10:00 pm in BFE.
2nd built 4L60 is holding up strong with the 100 shot.
