Re: trans, again

Stock 4L60E should easily handle what's shown in your sigature. Sounds like you got a poor quality rebuild.

Re: trans, again

i got told by my friends dad (who has been building camaro's and other race application gm's) that with my build a 2200 would be about what i want for streetability, but i think i might want to go a little higher this time, especially since im going to be beefing up the motor

Re: trans, again

"a little higher this time" ? you should've already been in the 3200-3600 range !
Instead of starting at 2200 where high torque application causes a sort of engagement to the drivetrain and having to climb/accelerate thru all that low horsepower part of the curve, a 'higher' stall will start more into the 'meatier' part of the curve. You're not wasting time(1/4 mile ET) climbing thru it. And that applies to every gear.
