-109k miles former rental truck, resonator delete, otherwise-bone stock down to stock engine tune,

It was a test vehicle. Had to work out the electronics and mechanics. This weekend a 6L90 is going into an AWD TBSS.

oh yeah...and full tank of gas!

@TrueBlueMotorsport I gotta see this... Really badly... And i suppose the 0-60 time of the 5.3 must have dropped like half second,imagine the SS...

@JDMGTP Not bad at all. I'm not aware of the swap on a Trailblazer but if the 80 can placed without any hesitation to the firewall you're almost ready to go,though you'll need a few parts as whatever the 60 was using wont be useable here.

I believe you can find links on the web about the swap to take an idea,search for "4L60E to 4L80E tranny swap".

[truebassB]

Just wondering... Why did you put the 6L80E on it with stock engine?

There must be either a good reason for not letting the stock 4L60E on it with a tranny cooler and upgraded parts,or you just did it because you can. :)

Oh and how hard was the swap?

[JDMGTP]

looks like it moves pretty good. Wonder what a good tune and a couple mods would do.......
