Honestly if your going to build it to hold boost get it sleeved it will last a lot longer and be more forgiving for that once in awhile oops while being more $ its well worth the piece of mind to know you have something that should hold up to qanything your going to throw at it not to mention...
He's looking for info on an automatic shifter for the 6R80 trans swapped into an earlier s197 . Currently still no option I know of other than what is discussed in the swap thread in another section here
Ive had my Vortech on the car for 5 years now makes good power (720) and has been totally reliable ..Like he said its a choice with a good tune Eaton for you works ...others have had just as luck with other brands
Honestly the 6 speed manual isn't the way to go ..yeah I have one and if I had it to do over again I would have gone auto all the way..Ive not had issues with mine but overall performance auto outshines the manual all day long
I'd give Vortech a call in the long run its going to be much cheaper to replace a blower than change an entire system. They make many blowers that should suit your needs.
Thanks guys yeah tunes not trash its a good one safe ect written by one of the best . I think i'll add a can of octane and start it and drive like a grandma we shall see lol
I think theres a pretty good thread on the 6R80 up in 4.6 tech from what Ive read there is currently no good aftermarket shifter available for your combo
I never thought Id let the car sit as long as it has but its going on 13 months since the car was started or driven. It has roughly 3/4 of a tank of gas . is it too far gone to carefully start up and drive say under 40 miles an hour? Its a 2011 gt with a Vortech V3 tuned by Ken B when he was...
