Well if you haven't seen my post in the General section I broke another 4L65e last night...so just as I had everything come in to start the turbo install this had to happen...needless to say the turbo build has been temporarily put on hold for maybe 2-3 weeks as I figure out what to do with the trans.

I am weighing all options right now, rebuild the 4L65 again, do a 4L80 swap...and the last one is get rid of my current tahoe and replace with a 3/4ton suburban...what ever I end up doing the turbo will be going on it.

Well the turbo build on the tahoe is officially off the table...after this last issue with the trans. I decided it was time to cut my losses and move on to bigger and better. The tahoe is getting returned back to stock form and is getting replaced by a 2011 Suburban 2500. Once I get a few miles on it I am going to start the turbo build on the 6.0L I'll get in touch with a mod on here so the threads can be merged together...I apologize to all that were looking forward to this build...I am truly disappointed myself as I know it was going to be a monster, well even though the suburban is heavier it will still be a fun street truck and tow *****.

Nah, burbs are still the 6.0..I don't understand GM's thinking here but it is what it is.
