Re: 4l65 tranny

5 Pinion Input & Reaction Carriers, Hardened Stator Splines, Heat Treated Sun Shell & 7 .065" 3-4 Clutches vs 6 .080" 3-4 Clutches found on 4L60E's.

Truth be told.....They burn down at a greater frequency than standard 4L60E's because the thinner .065" 3-4 Frictions. 4L60E 6 .080" Friction stacks are proven to hold up better. To run a 7 Friction stack, It is better to thin the Steels from .095" to .077" & run .080" Frictions.....

The 5 Pinion Carriers are nice pieces, But 4 Pinion Carriers will handle 500 horsepower. Carriers fail from Torrington bearing failure that GM did NOTHING about with the 4L65E.

The Stator & Sunshell are good things, There are stronger Sun Shells out there though.
