Re: What transmission to change to???

If you are just cruising and do not have a built engine like a 454, you could easily work with a 700r4 or 2004r. Since you are going to be using it like a truck lightly with towing, the turbo 400 is a tank. 4l80e is an electronic turbo 400 with an overdrive. My 95 tahoe 6.5td has the 4l80e and has 170k miles. It tows and plows and has never been opened. Only problem is you will need the electronic controller. my $.02.
