    just read thru your whole build and am very impressed, it seems you can do most anything. Really nice metal work. I'm doing a 5.3 with a 4l60e too but I chickened out on trying to rebuild the trans myself. I've done a couple manual transmissions but after looking at some video of a 4l60 rebuild it looked kind of involved.

    I just had to learn how to do most things myself due to the fact that customer service and caring about doing customers right seem to be a thing of the past. You are lucky if you have a good shop to take your things these days. I can mess up my own stuff, I don't need any help doing that.lol

    The trans is not so bad you can do, I find most things are not that hard if you have the will to learn, attention to detail, and patience for any learning curve. I had a great time rebuilding the engine and trans.

    Thanks for all your comments buddy
