Non-Fiero 4t45E /4t60E question
Posted: Wed Sep 19, 2012 7:35 am
Hi,
Been a while.
New daily driver is a 90 GA SE, with a QUAD-4 and 125-C it shifts smooth and drives nice, but found some teeth in the transmission pan.
I want to replace the transmission, and figure a 4-spd auto is a good upgrade. I've been driving a Quad442 for the last three years, No need to swap to a manual trans in this car, I've had enough shifting in my commute.
My problem is the 4t60 never came mounted to a quad4 bellhousing. So I have to use a 4t60E or something else like the 4t45E. I will make my descision based on gear ratios likely.
The 4t60e came on 94 OBD1 grand ams, so I can simply swap ecu's/repin and run with it to control the transmission.
Are there other alternatives to controlling these things that dont cost $700? Is Ryan still making controlers? I emailed him, got no response.
