At 5min, a 4l80 wouldn't last a week? Yet they're behind 1000 horsepower turbo LS combos. The 4l80 and 4l85 is basically a th400 in overdrive form and the strongest of the GM overdrive transmissions.
I know this is an old comment, but they were referencing a 4l60e vs 6l80e a lot before that point, he probably misspoke.. cause a stock 4l60e generally wouldnt last
Walid H it’s great just need to get it retune. The reverse gear is giving me troubles. I put in a 3200 stall as well. But it is a beast and it pulls hard when I get on it. You can see it on my gram @bbrblackwell and I’m on Facebook as well.

I just bought a 2011 4.3 Silverado and i seen this video and I'm loving everything about your truck. if i had money i would beg you to build this for me. my truck would fall apart as you pass lol. great job!
Thinking about 525 cam in my camaro… How does it handle on the street? Lots of surging at low rpm’s? Or is it all good for a semi daily driver in summer months.
_Did u upgrade the torque converter in the 6L80e to a 6L90 one? It would've been worth it while you did the trans swap the 6L80e torque converters are known to go out around 120k._
I love the build but it’s wierd how confused these guys are. 4l80 is a badass transmission you meant to say 4l60 and also you put a 12 bolt in not a 14 bolt and meant to say the 10 bolt is what it had in it and that it wouldn’t hold up!
What transfer case was used and how did the 4X4 launch goi have a 1984 K body I want to put this in and can't find a transfer case that would allow me to make the truck electric????
Do you have a shop in AZ or a website? I want to swap a 383 stroker in my 98 silverado and was wondering if your shop was available, I'm in the valley. Thank you

A 4L60 can't handle a 4.3's potential lol, weak transmissions. Considering how cheap and easy it is to swap in a 80e I don't know why anyone would stick with a 60.
Hey guys, I've got a 2018 Silverado K1500 (4x4) 5.3 and a cool looking 4-inch lifted 1996 Silverado K1500 5.7 Vortec. The '96 only has 174K miles but since replacing it with the 2018 I've seriously been considering rebuilding the '96 rather than selling it because the '96 is just cool looking to me. And, it's been a good truck. I'm thinking about going with an LS3. I'd love to go with either the 480HP or 525HP engine but with a 5-speed manual. What kind of numbers should I expect to pay on a swap like that?"
Do you sell the harness? I have a 2008 Silverado with a v6 and want to put an v8 in it but just having problems with the harness or how can I get in contact with you?
I just purchased the ls376/480 from gmperformance for my 2011 5.3 silverado. Was wondering if you could send me a link for the wiring harness and if possible the 2017 rear end. And possibly anything else I may need. If it isnt to much trouble. Been looking around and havent seen it done much.
Tom Wetz Nice 👍! My kinda guy! Ever seen a Fully Mechanical ( Springless ) Dual Rocker arm Valvetrain? Essentially no chance of valve floatation and less cam wear/load
@@patriciamartinez4056 In the video we just watched the lead dude with Velocity say the 4L60 is crap. It's fine and everything for the 290 HP 5.7 Vortec I've got in my '96 Silverado K1500. But, I'm not sold on the fact that it could handle anything above 400HP! You're pushing 430HP and a significant increase in torque. I'd go with the 6L80 and a programmer to fine tune your shift points. Better safe than sorry.
TRB02ss a 6l80e is just as strong and has more gears. It’s up to whatever the customer wants. I like the new transmissions and the ability to tune them to shift however you want. Also you get true tap shift for lighting quick shifting.
How was it that you were able to get 525hp from a stock ls3 6.2? I have installed a new crate engine also ls3 hot cam from Jegs. The put out 480 hp to the fly wheel. To the wheels it’s pushing 436hp on my 2007 chevy classic. Installed a new transmission and new gears to the rear end.
What was the actual hp to the wheels? I wish I should of got the one you got. The one I have I can actually beat a camaro ss with my truck. They get surprised but they don’t know what I have under the hood lol.
May as well 4wd launch without the customer dude just ragged the shit out of it the doughnut contest lol As for the drag strip you should be in whatever gear is 1:1 so likely 3rd if this is 4spd auto and ideally about 200 rpm past your shift point. Also yeah cheyanne has been on chevys for many years. are you sure you are a car guy??? or maybe you are the camera man for the ch? The engine raised hell that’s for sure. If it does that in a truck it should rip in a 2n gen Trans Am
I don't usually troll but honestly I can't see why u didn't just install a 6.2 truck engine with same compression as the ls3 keep the truck accessories a better intake custom cam and have more horsepower with less money involved seeing as how the ls3 and 6.2 is the same engine other than cam and oiling system
6.2 truck motors aren’t that great. My buddy had one and their numbers are terrible for what they should output. They just suck Fuel with little gains.
The 6.2 truck heads don't have hollow stem valves. Depending on your cam choice and how high you rev, it can be a problem. In terms of oiling system, I have no idea if the LS3 gets a different oil pump from the L92/L96 truck engines.

What a 4l60e to a 6l80e swap in a 2008 Silverado 1500????
Beautiful!! Awesome truck. Sounds NASTY!!
This video looks like it was shot in North Las Vegas.
Nice!! I would like to get the same rear end for my silverado ,those came out on 1995 on some tbi gm trucks ,6 lug 9.5 ring gear. Good job man.
This would be a great swap for a G8.
It’s what I’m about to swap into my g8 actually next month 🙌🏾
I would love to do this to my 2013 Chevy Silverado
I might have to do a 2017 Axle swap then. I have a 10-bolt for now, still with 245/65/17 tires, trying not to break it.
The 4l80e will hold a lot of power
Randall Wyatt they can but we prefer the 6 speed autos.
Swap Time what needs to be done for the 6l80 swap besides the tranny?
Gee thanks mr obvious
Swap Time yall said that the 4l80e wouldn’t handle 525 hp though? Transmission shops have said otherwise.
How would that setup work in a 2011 silverado
Bad ass I want that exact set up on my 87 k5 blazer
Got this same engine in my YukonXL. shit is badass!
What parts did y’all use for that rear end swap? Is there a guide or video showing that? I’m interested in doing it to my truck
Thinking about 525 cam in my camaro… How does it handle on the street? Lots of surging at low rpm’s? Or is it all good for a semi daily driver in summer months.

The corvette motor has different heads, cam, and everything else. Same displacement size, but much more powaaaa!
No vvt different cam valve reliefs in pistons light weight valves and different intake.
Lighter valves & valvesprings along with a diff cam

how much torque???
