Re: 4L80E behind a 5.3

If you were to dyno the same vehicle with a 60e vs an 80e, the 60e would have a little less parasitic drivetrain loss; the tradeoff being that the 80e is far stronger, enough to warrant a little extra loss.

When you start making big power, that few hp loss is worth the strength. The same applies to rear ends as well (i.e 10bolt vs 12bolt)
