I'm not that upset about the new real big BBC.

I'm kinda laughing about the trans anouncement.

"Supermatic 4L75-E Automatic Transmission: 19368615 | Performance" https://www.chevrolet.com/performance-parts/transmissions/supermatic-4l75-e

GM performance also anounced they are selling a 4l75e

Don't forget that GM has had a 6 speed auto since 08.... And an 8 speed since 15....

Let's also not forget the 4l75e is a 7004r with a lot of plastic surgery. The 7004r was designed by coked up 70's Detroit engineers to give anemic 140hp 305 5500lb square bodies some lugging power to tug boats up the boat launch.

It has a 1-2 gear ratio split that should have been replaced in 94 when vortec heads and LT1's came out, in 99 when LS's came out, or in 07 when Gen IV LS's came out but nooo.

Also it's not like a different gear set isn't available...
"Sonnax 2.84 Ratio Input Carrier Kit - 77284-K" https://www.sonnax.com/parts/3734-2-84-ratio-input-carrier-kit

The 700/60e was designed in the 70's/80's and should have stayed in the 70's/80's like shag carpeting, afros and mullets, disco and runaway inflation.

I have a fully built billet 4L70E and I ever wouldn't consider putting a consistent "1000" hp to it - hell 650 scares me.
