Inside your glovebox you should find a sticker with many 3 character codes on it.
Look for either M30 (4L60E) or MYC (6L80E).

MD8 = 700R4 / 4L60 (no 'E')
M30 = 4L60E
M32 = 4L65E (4L60E Heavy Duty)
MD6 = 4L65E (what is 'PTU'?)
M70 = 4L70E (Super Duty) (somebody with a TrailBlazer SS, please check their RPOs?)

MT1 = 4L80E
MN8 = 4L85E (Heavy Duty, think 6.6L DuraMax)

MYC = 6L80E
MYD = 6L90E (Heavy Duty, think 6.6L DuraMax)

M5U = 8L90E
MQE = 8L90E with 'improvements'

MF6 = 10L80E
MX0 = 10L90E

I think you typed the year wrong, a 2008 denali would not be a 4sp, it would be a 6l80 6-speed and it would say PRNDL
nbs 2000-2006 they had the 4l60, unless someone changed it.

You should have a 4L70E if your shift indicator has that pattern. Look for M70 RPO code in your glove box though as @Doubeleive said, you should have a 6L80 (RPO=MYC) for that year.

@JustPlaneMike this is posted in the 2000-2006 section. Check your year and put your year, make, model, and trim in your signature so it's always in your posts.

Then we can move this thread if needed. You'll get more accurate answers posting with good info in the correct section.
Is there a way to add signature and save it or do i have to enter it every time? Ps I searched for an answer before posting and could not find one, thanks
