Default Strongest 4L60E?

I have a another project, and am looking for a built 4L60E. Who makes the strongest 4L60E? I know there are stronger trannies, but we need to stick with the 4L60E.

I think your strongest option would be to swap in a 4L65e. I belive it has the same physical dimensions as the 4L60e but has hardned shafts, 5 pinion planetary, roller bearing thrust washer etc...etc.. its what they put behind the 400hp GTO's..

Alot of people on the forum have had good luck with PeteK's trannys!

If you want the strongest trans. Do what I did and go with the 4l80e and then you have a trans.

The 4l80e trans bolts right in, no cutting at all.
You have to make up the bracket for tailshift to fit the C-Beam and you good to go.
