Transmission maxes Maximum engine power: 469 bhp Maximum engine torque: 439 lb-ft Maximum gearbox torque: 664 lb-ft
Thanks GM.
mfw Gen IV LS engine in heavyfuck vehicle just waiting for some love paired with anemic transmission.

So what do I do, build a 4L80E and perform the fuckery needed to have it work with the current ECM.
Risk one of the janky 6L80E kits for a notoriously hard to tune, still weaksauce transmission
Rip all the wiring out of a modern vehicle, bolt a TH400 to my block and carb the cocksucker.
Lincoln Cruz
less power than the ford raptor
Easton Perry
Transmission torque ratings are dependent on the weight of the vehicle they're in and the amount of grip it has. Stick that transmission in a Daihatsu Charade and it'll hold a million billion horsepowers.
The solution is simple: make your truck lighter.
Parker Anderson
looks like the engine and transmission match well together. whats the problem again?
Elijah Kelly
460>439
Julian Baker
Which one? Old Raptor, new Raptor, or both?
Joshua Lee
Want to moar power. Cannot moar power, tranny is maxed. Can't even bolt ons without exceeding what the tranny can handle.
In stock trim its fine.. in stock trim, but if I wanted to even approach 500bhp it looks like my transmissions gonna kerplotz.
The GM is a 2011.
It's a crew cab with a longer wheelbase than the Raptor.
Also, 2011 Ford Raptor Crewcab specs 379 cu in, 6210 cc Power: 411 hp @ 5500 rpm Torque: 434 lb-ft @ 4500 rpm
Also the GM isn't a Ford Motor Company built abortion so theres that.

The 2017 Raptor has 510 lb ft of torque, LOL

Even if you get it up to 500hp it'd still get smoked by a stock 2017 diesel. I don't really get 3/4 ton gas trucks, Diesel makes more sense.
Lucas Adams
I must be missing something important because when I look up the L9H it tells me the was a 5.3L engine and the power specs are under the transmission specs.
Dylan Torres
Two less turbos, better reliability, and better mpg too
Isaac Carter
Until you blow a hole in the block.
Nathan Peterson
You are missing knowing anything about GM engines I guess?
The L9H is the RPO code for the Generation 4 All Aluminum LS based 6.2L small block chev. It was called the L92 prior to it receiving flex-fuel capability as well as variable valve timing.
It's the same motor (essentially) as an LS3 in the vettes.
Isaac Reyes
not an argument stay btfo
Ian Harris
Twin Turbo 6.2 Only 510ftlb of torque.
Welp.
Wait, why are we arguing with this guy? Anyone comparing a Ford motor to an LS SBC has got to be trolling.
Diesel trucks are awful because of a lack of serviceability and absurd cost of ownership.
Jonathan Russell
Lotta shit about modern diesels I don't like.
I have 2007 duramax powered 2500HD and thats as modern as I care to go.

>but if I wanted to even approach 500bhp it looks like my transmissions gonna kerplotz. According to my napkin math, you'd be over 700 BHP before you're making enough torque to break your transmission. And that's assuming you're gaining torque evenly across the board, which is a lot harder to do that just sticking a fat cam on it and cranking up the rev limiter.
Jonathan Lopez
Did you not see the base weight of the truck?
Moving it IS working. Theres guys with the same transmission behind basically the same powerplant (L99) infront of the same transvestite in their pissed-gen camaros eating them up.
