Randeez 2012 Budget Yukon Denali Build (stick on hood scoops galore)

[randeez]

needs a lot for e85, hoping it will keep stock short block alive for a while - which im doing a terrible job at right now
and thats where this table comes in, i have plenty of injector to run at lower than 58psi and still flow enough. right now fuel pressure drops to low 30s psi so i know if "commanded" pressure is lower than actual pressure the ecm will do its thing, so long as the pressure reading is accurate. I think i will start with having the regulated pressure around 50psi (1:1 boost referenced also).

Things are looking great here. Nice progress.

6, I believe its 6....

 

[randeez]

ahh good, only halfway there

14 bolt rear, 9.25" front... Pretty sure you have decent tires. And the next weakest link is...

yep, it had been making some noise from the bellhousing for a while - pump? i dont really know trannys to well, so it wasnt really a surprise.



what to do- what to do

reman'd trans from gm actually isnt to bad $2800, $1500 core, prob no warranty after they realize it wasnt behind a stock truck

bunch of billet parts and rebuilt 6l80 $5-6k , with no one telling me it'll hold up to over 1k in a yukon.

could prob rebuild it myself with all /\ those parts but still cost $3k and no guarantee itll work

there is one other option....

4l80e that *****.

4l80e that *****.

pretty much lol, already made a few calls today. truck is already pretty bastardized, not like if i ever plan to sell it "that" would be a downside. may have to go back to 3.42s to keep highway rpm down

i'll need new converter, circle d will take mine (both mine, i still have the first one) back and credit towards another so not to bad
pcm of nc has a conversion harness, plug and play with gm controller ~700ish

$3200 will get me one that'll hold up to 1k pretty confidently, iffy part being the weight, billet shafts
from there billet replacement parts keep driving up the cost depending on how stout i want to build it.
5500 would pretty much get me the last trans i would ever need to put in this thing.

4l80e is stupid easy to build man. Even easier to tune.
