bad dood! congrats... LQ9 and the NVG149 4L65E combo is (was for me) tons of freaking fun man, as you saw what i stated before about the trans... that was the weakest point in the drivetrain, I did shread the viscus clutch of the 149 into tiny pieces of silicone once, but I believe that to have been a major fluke.... or bad programming (tq mgmt) - 12 lbs of boost, cammed, with a T Blazer tq cvtr... If you get into some serious power down the road, or thoughts of serious power... start with a solid foundation, from what I've been told by the dudes (back in the day) over at silveradoss.com an output shaft has hit mainstream to mate the NVG149 to a 4L80E, back when i had my truck there was one person on the planet rocking that shaft (that sounds awful even as im typing it), but that was a friend of mine, Kurt Urban, and with that it held up for 26 lbs of boost on a 427 running 10s (daily driver) with AWD and an 80... anywho, start there and the world becomes your oyster / more piece of mind that you'd never regret!!!
