4L65E's are rare, And 99% are for AWD trucks, Finding a 2WD in a yard is next to impossible.

If there is any way to get your money back...Do it!
That's not entirely true. 65e's came in 2wd for the Silvy SS and VHO. But in all likelihood, you're right, he doesn't have a 65e, as not many of them are around. So you probably have a toasted 60e. haha


And the only differences from the 60e to the 65e is
* Five-pinion gears for input and reaction gearsets (versus four-pinion gears in the L60)

* Heat-treated stator shaft splines

* Induction hardened turbine shaft

* Heavier-duty low/reverse roller clutch

* Additional friction plate added to 3-4 clutch (seven plates versus six in L60)

* Shot-peened output shaft

* Revised valve body calibration
