Bonj87 Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 ok yeah.. mine is slipping. I talked to zippy, we figured between 1000 and 1500 and 2 to 3 days in repairs is an estimate. Im not complaining in anyway about that. I am working out the logistics in the time of the truck being down, getting a rental (that works into the cost too), getting home from zippy's etc. With that in mind, 616 of 933 and i found the following links, and I would like comments and thoughts on which way people would go this tranny is 900, looks basically stock, and free shipping. it allows me to keep my core for doing anything i want.. maybe building it up on the side??? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Rebuilt-Hea...ash=item2702203 this is sprayed99, if he has it, upgraded, but more money http://www.silveradoss.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=40964 this is posi12bolt's from last years.. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/4L65e-4L60e...sspagenameZWDVW and this one is really upgraded, and free shipping of the unit, and free shipping of the core return http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/4L60E-4l65e...sspagenameZWDVW now, the upside to any of these,.. they are a RR of about 7 hours instead of 3 days, and cuts out the car rental and how to get home from zippy's.. I AM NOT TRYING TO CUT ZIPPY OUT.. JUST TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THE BEST LOGISTICS AND BANG FOR THE BUCK. i respect the hell outta zippy.. im just doin research.. please.. give me your comments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS_bnoon_SS Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 I'm starting to like Sprayed99's trannies. I just sent him a PM about one myself (he builds them, and so does his father if I remember right). If he shoots me a good price on the build I spec'ed out to him, I'm just going to take him up on it. I'm as burned out as my tranny is at the moment and don't want to go through this another time if I mess something up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allballz57 Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Whatever you do,do a better torque converter while it's out.because taking out the trans to do just the converter is a p.i.t.a,I know from experience if you know what I mean!!

Bonj87 Posted March 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 ok.. are these accurate pics of the accumulator pistons that break? http://www.gmhightechperformance.com/tech/...n/photo_13.html http://www.gmhightechperformance.com/tech/...n/photo_14.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS_bnoon_SS Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 Yup, those are the ones to replace with aluminum ones. I got mine from FLT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterp Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 (edited) The 4L70 that you linked to has been sold; we get 4L60 cores here for $200, so if you want to keep your original 4L60 you can do so and one can be built for you for only $200 more. There are a few people with these transmissions now in the last couple months, and so far they are all performing great, and for N/A use I am positive they will go the distance. Testing on "high-stress" applications will begin shortly Mr. P. Edited March 24, 2008 by Mr. P. (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oscareltemblo Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Why not go 4l80e, if you ever plan to mod the motor more you will be glad you did do the 80e. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
