    Gotcha, I'm good at misunderstanding.

    Derek, that's also my basic understanding of the family progression for that trans.

Even I'm not easy on it, I'm probably easier than my pops was but it's a fun car so hard not to stab the go pedal. It'll be getting it's second filter change next year. Dad sure as hell didn't maintain it.

      Probably just the application, guess I'd never want a truck, especially a 4x4, with a 4L60 in it. 4L80 if I had to go slushbox. Don't think I've ever owned an automatic truck though.
      sure thats not a 200R4? Thats what most of the cars got.

      Sun shell broke in my S10's 4L60E. Snapped backing out of the driveway. When rebuilt with the upgraded parts its plenty durable but the early stock parts were a bit shite.

        Definitely the 700R4.

        Also, it looks like I'm not good at quote replying to the correct post, LOL. That quote was supposed to be of post #14 not #12.

          Engine braking in manual seconds is achieved by applying the overdrive band. Engine braking in 1st is with the reverse band.

            Figured as much.

              Yep, 200+500R4. I think the Chevys/Buicks/Caddyshacks got the 200 for as long as GM could dump them on people.

              Wow, that's literally a tough break on your S10's trans. I just hate how autos can seemingly fail with no warning like that. At least with manuals, there is usually an audible warning.

                that was like 15 years ago, nothing recent. Only warning I got was a funky hitch backing up. Drove around the block slowly and it went Ping! Pulled the pan and there were things that shouldn't have been in there. Put it back together and it lasted another couple thousand miles shredding itself to pieces. Lasted just long enough to fix the Towncar, which had been initially purchased to drive while I saved money to fix the S10. Ended up putting an engine and trans in that before the truck got fixed.

                  OOo. Pics of the carnage? Switched insurance on the garage queens and to Haggerty and that came with a free subscription to Motortrend. Watched David Free-burger grenade a C6 or something on one of those old Econoline trucks, was spectacular.
