Anyone changed BACK to a 4L60E after swapping to an 80?

How about 6th gear and 4.56's. HA!

I think it'd be cheaper and easier for you to swap out the gear set, or switch to a shorter tire. Although that might look silly.

Nah the bigger challenge is to make everything work as it is right now. I have more boost on the way, hopefully that will help.

I dont know why but I like the first gear one mine. no lag at all, But probley the stall makes it feel different. But I would say why not try to install the gears in the tranny, But probley the cheapest way to go is go with some 4.11.
