Initial thoughts on the 8-speed Trans.

Thanks I have so much to learn I didnt even know there was a dipstick

Actually, it doesn't. Those 8-speeds didn't come with them in your truck, I forgot.

Yes I am very interested in that, of course I have to ask you how would I go about doing that? I dont mind reading so any links or vids would be very helpful

Your best bet is to call Black Bear Performance, a trusted tuner for folks here in this Forum, and have a discussion with them. They can tell you what can be accomplished through a tune of the transmission, based upon their actual experiences in tuning protocols. Going through a real-time live conversation with experts is the most efficient way to understand what is possible, even if you subsequently decide on another option, or to do nothing at all.

They are junk! I’m sure the 10 speeds will be worse. Can’t stand the constant shifting and converter clutch cycling. 4l60e’s are most reliable and maybe 6l80s with updates.
