4L80E not bullet proof afterall...
I was doing a WOT run past a F150 on Sat and the 1-2 shift slipped like a **** Now 1st slips bad It has about 70k on it with 50 of that supercharged. I guess the daily full throttle driving in a near 6000lbs truck finally did it.... Gonna install a transgo during the rebuild.

Stock with tweaked line pressure, no shift kit. I figure the truck weighs a good 5700.

If i come into problems with my 65e I believe my ss will become RWD by way of an 80e if the AWD thing has not been figured yet. Im hoping that staying NA and driving it easy 90% of the time will counter the track time....
