Got some new times, but at the cost of a now-slipping tranny. Guess that it's time for a 4L80E:
60'-------2.306
330'------6.057
1/8-------9.091
MPH------81.08
1000'-----11.697
1/4-------13.917
MPH------100.99
I think that some low 13's are in my future when the 4L80E, converter and gears get done. I'm sooooo stoked!!!!
Very nice! Good thing it came together nicely. How fast you tryin to push the truck?

Let's face it, the red hair... makes 'em wet.
Nice times, a better MPH better than mine! I hope the 4L80E doesn't slow you down. It weighs more, doesn't have the low 1st gear the 60 has, and takes more HP to run it. It is a tough tranny though but you might want to consider a built 4L60E first. Just a thought!Originally posted by Scream@Jan 24 2004, 07:33 PM

I'm shooting for 12's on the motor, and even lower 12's on the bottle.
I just don't want to spend money hand over fist on the 60 just for it to keep breaking on me.
Anyone else have an opinion????
T56. or stick with a built 60e. very promising times...thats nearly a full second off your last runs when i met you back in december.(14.7's) have you installed the tr224 yet? or was this run with the cam? any dyno numbers?

Yea a 4l80e will slow your times down some, of course it will not constantly be breaking, but I believe it weighs 30-50 lbs more.... I looked into this and after considering everything, I think a built 4l60e would be better in the end. Plus you will have to find some way to get the computer to work with the 80. JMO...
