been looking at these two transmissions:

http://performabuilt.com/
level 2

or

http://www.transperformance.net/4l60e%20LEVEL%203.html
level 3

anyone used either of these guys? the transperformace stage 3 reads the same as the performabuilt stage 3, but costs as much as their stage 2.

i've gotta make a decision by the end of this week

thanks

Why not do a 4l80e, if your doing 60e you have computer already. budget 80e build will outperform a 60e high dollar build anyday.

4l60e has deeper first gear, taller top gear

4l60e is lighter and smaller

4l60e is more readily available

price on a basic build 4l80e is typically more expensive then a well built 4l60e.

my motor is only slated to put out 500/500 unassisted at the crank... and going in a car less then 3500 lbs. all well within the limits of a 60e if built right

twist machines shwifter system + built 4l60e $< tko 5 speed conversion by nearly a thousand bucks.

I wont have to shift if I dont want to (working a stick in traffic on a daily driver gets old)

i'll get perfect launches every stoplight when I want to roast some import ars.
