Default Torque converters for 4L65-E?

Will we be using the same torque converters for our 4L60-E's for the new C6 tranny 4L65-E? Its the same tranny right, with just some upgrades? But I dont' know too much about trannys to begin with. Thx.

The difference between the 4L60E and the 4L65E is internal and applies to its maximum input torque rating.

It should be the same exact application yes.
I have a feeling that with the 3.15 gear option, a well broken in, low option A4 C6 with a good torque converter (Vig or Yank, 3600+ stall range) and some BFG drag radials will run an 11.9 second 1/4 mile. :yesnod:

How long before somebody makes a 19" drag radial though? Largest available now is a 18" Nitto. BFG still only makes a 17".
