jwest1975 Posted November 4, 2002 Report Share Posted November 4, 2002 I just found this on the www.media.gm.com website. I swear it wasn't there 5 minutes ago although I could be wrong. "A standard high output LQ9 version of the Vortec 6000 V8, with 345 horsepower and 380 lb-ft of torque, provides Silverado SS with exhilarating off-line acceleration and relaxed cruising. It mates to a Hydra-Matic 4L85-E four-speed automatic overdrive transmission, whose 3.06 first gear and 0.70 final gear contribute to the truck's impressive performance." Did you see the transmission they now list for the truck? Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcairns Posted November 4, 2002 Report Share Posted November 4, 2002 Is that the same one I stumbled across a while back? See thread here: http://www.silveradoss.com/forums/index.ph...870e97f90f04a5b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcairns Posted November 4, 2002 Report Share Posted November 4, 2002 I was kinda hopeful they would use the beefier transmission too. I guess I need to save some money for a transmission rebuild after I add the supercharger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwest1975 Posted November 4, 2002 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2002 I sent out and email to GM earlier today asking which one they will be using. This was the response: "Dear Mr. West, The Silverado SS will have the 4L65-E transmission. Thanks for your interest in Chevy Trucks! Randy Fox Chevy Communications" Then again, we already knew that. Oh well. <_< Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
