What level transmission are you running? What is your appx torque/hp? What rpms are you WOT shifting? How many miles do you have on your transmission and have you had any issues (transmission relate)?

I need to upgrade due to the recent cammed motor swap.

I'm also very interested in this info plus how many miles you've put on it, especially guys with the level 4.

ive got as level 4, it is a huge improvement over stock. ive had it on for probably 8K miles no problems vince said it was the heads and cam trans and a level 5 is a power adder trans. i however and going to hate to see it go when i upgrade to a 4l80e soon

i would only buy and FLT trans. if you do a search look and see how many peoples so called built trans have crapped out on them, then do a search on FLT and see how satisfied everyone is. just my opion.

Level 5 4L65E
approx 475 rwhp-525 rwtq on a 150 shot
I'm shifting at 6800RPM 1-2 and 6400 RPM 2-3 at WOT

I've only got about 5K miles on mine. I drive it every day. The only problem I've had was with my old PI converter that took a dump and killed the front pump. I sent it back to FLT, and bought a brand new Yank SS3600 and have had ZERO issues since.

I would never hesitate to do it all over again... The money is well worth the product you get.

I believe I have a level 4 4L60e that I have almost 50K on it. I've only got bolt-ons so no huge HP. I also have a PI 2400 (I tow quite a bit). My tune has 0 torque management and the 1-2 shift is firm enough to bark the tires. I routinely pound on mine with no issues. I also tow about 5000lbs about 3000 miles per year. I'm at 194K (total miles).

Chuck's shop is about a 1/4 mile from my business and I have been VERY impressed with their quality and their standing behind their product. I will DEFINITELY use them again on my next GM
