Re: 4L80E behind a 5.3

Haha sorry about that. Didn't want to start a debate. You're 100% right anyway. The converter is the key. I still stand by my statement though, for the average Joe trying to run 11s or 12s just install something reliable. The 4L80E is tough to beat from a cost/toughness/streetability standpoint.

Haha no worries, it was bound to happen.

For sure I wont argue it, I love the 80e's. Just like to make it clear that a 60e for the right price isn't a bad deal for a mild built LS.
