    4.3 to 5.7 swap - No Brake Light Relay/ Fuse on swapped Harness

    Thank you for taking the time to respond and attach the diagram. Just my luck I use a Harness/ Fusebox with No Brake Relay out of the thousands out there. Surprised no one had mentioned this before as I couldn't find any info regarding that issue on a swap. Very much appreciated.

    Will a 2008 4L60e Retrofit in place of a 2003?

    I have a 2008 4L60e with ISS and 15 pin connector. Can this Trans. fit into a 2003 Silverado and operate correctly. I would think as long as the Trans is a complete 2008 unit (Matching Pump, Input Drum, Valvebody, etc), it would just swap into the vehicle in place of the earlier 2003 model...

    4L60e Case/ Valvebody Interchange

    Forgot to mention, just swapped the middle case only, used Bell and Tailshaft from the 99.

    4L60e Case/ Valvebody Interchange

    Perfect, Thank you. With the difference in years of the Case and VB, I wasn't sure what VB gaskets to use, I assume the gasket set matches the VB year and not the Case year? Not sure what side changed from 2000-on.

    Truth about 99 4l60e into 96

    No modifications? I guess you had to bend the Trans line to fit on an angle, was that all?

    4L60e Case/ Valvebody Interchange

    I have a '99 4l60e Transmission with a broken case around the Servo snap ring area causing a leak , I swapped everything over to a 2002 4L60e Case. My question is, the Valvebody is stamped 98, now the new case is a 2002, what Valve body gaskets do I use, xx-99 or 2000-up gaskets?

    4L65E Flare on 2-3 Shift

    Anyone have any suggestions. Could the boost valve be the issue if not seated fully down in the bore. You can see in the bottom pic if you zoom in on it that is looks pretty close to the top of the bore.

    4L65E Flare on 2-3 Shift

    I rebuilt a 4L65E Trans, that someone had pulled from a Jeep, but was putting it in an '05 Escalade. Never seen the original Escalade Trans but the one I rebuilt had no Input Speed Sensor on the pump. He installed it and called me to say 1st is fine, but 2nd and 3rd gears flare about 500 rpm...

    10 or 13 Vane 4L60E Pump?

    I'm building my 2nd 4L60e Trans. This is going behind a '97 LT1 5.7L that I just got back from the machine shop. This Trans. had a 10 vane pump in it, I have a complete 13 vane pump in my spare parts bin. Which would be best to use for this build? I did install a normal orange box Transgo Shift...
