Get a bargain 4L80e, add a shift kit and servo's and enjoy the truck.

 

oh, i was saying what i would do with the parts i already have on hand haha. anyone can dream up a crazy combo.

 

well uhh, u got sum spare parts, like an engine and a trnny layin around, fell free to uh, you know, send one my way... hehehe i have a stooopid 4.3 V6 in my truck.. nuff said

 

I remember reading the threads as slow's truck came along, I've always liked his truck...made me want a 6.0. Good luck with it...if you want to take it to the next level get an LSx block, a built 80E, 14 bolt, and build the hell out of it!

 

Well whats up with a 4l80e? I was told they were huge power parasites.

 

First gear is yes but it's a necessary evil if you want your tranny to last more than one pass down the street.

 

Okay. I mite be doing that or a 65e. Have been told they are a good alternative.
