From what I understand, the 4L60 does not have the strength (torque rating) to live a long happy life behind a 6.0. GM beefed up the 4L60E to slightly increase the torque rating for the 4L65E.
Later 4L60E had most of the 4L65E upgrades.

Yep. The 2001 4L60E may not have the improvements implemented in later years, so don't expect a long transmission life.

Yes it will. I have a 2000 Tahoe and have a 2002 6.0 in my truck. If it comes with a flexplate with a spacer you will need to remove it and add your flexplate with no spacer. Your flexplate has 3 bolt pattern and flexplate with spacers are for the 4l80 which are 6 bolt pattern.

Will it kill your transmission? You damn straight it will if u not careful. U can do shift kits and vette servos, bump the line pressure and keep some torque management in the tune to make it survive. A bigger cooler wouldn't be a bad idea either..I got all that and am looking for a 4l80. 60 just isn't strong enough.
