Damn! That sux. But you know that old saying, when you get lemons, make lemonade! That's kind of how my build started. Do your research and build it bigger and badder! That's what we do around here! Good luck. :happy107::waytogo:
And here's a popcorn for everything that's coming. :popcorn:

Just beware that if you build too much HP your 4l60e trans will probably fail unless you either build it too or do an 80e swap. 4l60e's aren't strong by any means.

dont waste your time/money building a 60e especially in a 5000+ pound vehicle that you are planning to boost.

go 80e with a shift kit and a converter and never worry about it.

tuning is the biggest thing with these engines. the sloppy mechanics youtube page guys just did almost 900hp through a 250k mile junkyard 6.0 and a junkyard 80e with a converter and shift kit.

im sure you will be fine at 500ish hp you are going to see with a supercharger.
