    95 4L60E, can only be replaced by 95 4L60E?

    I was always under the impression that all the internals are the same between 700r and 4l60. Just that the 4l60 is computer controlled. BTW, thank you all for the information.

    Surging, missing, sputtering.

    Well, I replaced the CTS thats in the front of the manifold, and the one in the drivers side head. I bought a Autozone Bosch 02 sensor and it made no difference. I also heard on this forum that anything but a Delco is junk. I replaced the fuel pump about a year ago, before the new motor. Got...

    Surging, missing, sputtering.

    .030 over 350, flat tops, stock heads shorty headers, true duals. Truck starts and idles fine most of the time. Occasionally it will start surging @ idle, 900 rpm down to 400 and back. runs really crappy while driving, like its only running on 2 or 3 cylinders. Mash it to the floor and it...

    New engine not satisfying.

    OK guys and gals, heres the issue, I put a new 355 in my truck that I bought from a local engine builder, added Flowtech shortys, and true dual 2 1/2 exhaust. the engine idles smoothly and with no load it revs nicely. Timing is set to 8 degrees btdc. I run at least 93 octane ALWAYS! When the...

    Driveshaft seems to be delaminating.

    Thanks, good info, Ill see if I can get one at the yard. And grease my yoke while its out. The common clunk upon takeoff is driving me batshit crazy.

    Driveshaft seems to be delaminating.

    I have a very heavy duty looking aluminum driveshaft in my truck. It has this fiberglass looking coating on it, and the coating is cracked approximately 40% down the side and is peeling back, can I somehow tear the rest of this off and be safe? It seems to be throwing my driveshaft out of...

    Replacing single with dual

    I just had a shop do mine, dual Flowmaster 40's 2 1/2" pipe, the shop I went to charged me $300. I love the sound.

    lets talk mufflers

    Flowtech shorties, dual 2 1/2" 16ga aluminized, thru original 40's exiting out both sides behind rear tires. IMHO, the best sounding exhaust I've ever heard. Sounds unbelievable when I tromp it under an overpass. (Or brake torque in the quarter wash, Cop LOVED that!)

    275/50's all the way around? Do the fronts rub at all?

    My exhaust build thread

    Percy's dead soft copper collector gaskets, PERIOD! Do it once, do it right. I fought with blown out collector gaskets in the past, someone hipped me to percy's and I havent looked back. And no, I dont work for them or sell them.

    95 4L60E, can only be replaced by 95 4L60E?

    Is it true that this is a one year only trans? No other trans will work in my truck without extensive mods? :gm:

    Want to swap in 3.73 rear end in c1500

    Are there any 5 lug trucks that have the 3.73's from the factory? Want to do the complete drum to drum swap because I cant afford to have someone set up gears. Which trucks should I be looking at?

    How much oil do you use?

    My 95 silverado had 184k on the original, and used a quart every 150-200 miles. Valve seals in #4 were gone. Pull #4 plug and it looked like coral caked on there. Ran that thing out of oil so many times. Expressway on my way to work @85-90 mph, look down, and NO oil pressure. drove it five more...

    I'll admit it...I don't know jack sh*t about the internals of an engine.

    You are going to want to buy the best torque wrench that you can afford. Cheap ones don't keep their calibration well. And ALWAYS reset it to its lowest setting after use. Good luck with your project! I think you will find that once you understand how everything works together your confidence...

    New project, new to this forum, not alot of pics, but I'm getting there!

    Thats my baby, got the motor straight, now I gotta tackle those cab corners and lower doors. The rockers are surprisingly solid. Thinking about debadging and removing the wheel well trim. make it not so much an old man truck. Anyone else on here have the RCLB 2WD? I could use some inspiration!
