True, and it was the same on another video Scotty Kimer posted called ""Who makes the best ENGINE, and why?" But I thoroughly enjoyed watching both, and I truly believe it was a much better use of my time than watching a mostly subjective view on "the best" engine or transmission. Put in other words: There are these kinds of transmissions out there. What's the best one? You be the informed judge.

Scotty, you would love this. When I was still a very green Mech. Engineer I worked with an old pump and motors engineer and we installed and adjusted an Allis Chalmers 2 million gallon a day pump and motor. It used a flow meter and Pneumatic controls to control the pumps 18 in. radius disc in and out and had two huge serpentine belts that controlled the flow complicated with the fact the motor was also two speed. I had to learn to maintain two of these and keep the valves adjusted correctly. The thing was about five feet high and the plants overhear crane helped us lift the motor off for service. The belts were a new fangled technology in 1975, four inches wide and costing 800 dollars back then. I was in LOVE.

My parents had a 1958 Chevrolet that had something like a CVT, but it was hydraulic. It had 3 turbines and the transmission could valve the fluid to 2 of the turbines at the same time, in any proportion that was needed. It did not have definite shifts that could be felt. The car just went faster, accelerating but the engine speed remained about the same. It was called the Turboglide. My Dad called it other things as they had reliability problems. Eventually he had a Powerglide installed.

The 4 speed 4l60e was not a bad transmission unless you raced it all the time. I have an automatic Corvette with that transmission lol. I think the last owner had the transmission rebuilt by someone who knew how to modify them a bit because it shifts really quick and smooth. Also has fresh, red ATF when I checked the fill plug. It already had over 130k miles.

Yeah, and when you need to rebuild the 6 speed, it is easily twice the price. No thanks. The 4 speed is more than enough ratios with lockup as a virtual 5th gear. My father in law calls lockup a "paper gear" I guess because on paper it serves as another ratio. Or maybe because it's as flimsy as a gear made from paper...
@prrcpor 3 жыл бұрын
It's hard for me to explain but have any of you ever drove an old 4 cylinder escort, or Honda civic automatic where the car is always struggling to maintain speed by downshifting all the time? That's what my 2013 silverado feels like with this 6speed. Same 5.3 actually more powerful the my 01 5.3. The 01 4speed overdrive was just a much nicer ride all around.

I hear ya, still got my 2000. Simple and solid V8 running on all cylinders, 4 speed tranny and old school rear end. Going on 21 years now. And I just got a '14 Scion XB with a big overbuilt fuel injected inline 4 with 4 speed Aisin auto. No turbo, GDI or multi speed or CVT. I dread the day I may have to buy some new cookie cutter plumbers nightmare. I'll look for a barn find 1st.

That is a stout box for sure, the 6R80, and GM 6L80/90 variants are strong as hell too. Not withstanding GMs 8L90 and the new 10spd 10R80/10L80 from them both. I believe Ford holds the strongest trans though with the 6R140 and 10R140 both being seriously stout units.
