How long did the 4l60e that he built you last? I think it should be strong enough for me, the 80e is gonna cost a little more and I don't think I will really need it.

Sorry to hear about thre tranny dude. Not taking any respect from Jag.....but i would highly recommend FLP's to anyone. Chuck is great.
Also, without any forced induction...wouldnt a 80e be too much? wouldnt there be a little drag?

WTF, a 60E taking the can you must be kidding me I have never heard such a thing, and how dare you make such a claim. you should be banned!!!! You must of blown a piston or something else cause I dont know how this could have ever happened.
j/k dude sorry if I could ever make any suggestion, I could tell you that I have decided not to go with the 60E, ever. There are just way to many people blowing it. I was decided to go with it earlier this week and then I thought really long and hard about it. Grippy made a good point to me earlier. "You should just do it one time and move on" words of wisdom. these trannies are becoming that crazy *** ex g/f that never leaves you alone.

nightmarechevy sorry to hear about the trans. With all the transmissions and G80's going down lately I'm hopeing mine mine will hold up. I've got the 2nd-3rd shift clunk that is getting worse. Don't know if it is the trans or rear end. Good luck with the JAG.

I have a 2002 new style 4l60e with less than 3400 miles on it, and have the VIN to back it up. They are putting a 6 month warranty on it, PM me if you are interested. If not, good luck on your search.
