What trans comes with the 6.6?

6L90 and it looks like they are now using an old torque converter from 2014-2015 6.2 Tahoes and 1500 trucks. I do not have a clue if that is a good/bad thing.

That's no good. It won't hold.

That sucks and I will have to remember to ask my customers who are GM dealers if they are starting to see any issues yet.

I pick up the AT4 on Thursday afternoon.

I had read they use about 75% of the old trans that was behind the 6.0 and beefed up the newer parts they replaced/upgraded. Haven’t read anything on the converter being an issue yet or if it’s the 6.2 one now. Got my gm tech buddy looking into that for me. Good news is if it is and it shits the bed there’s lots of aftermarket choices!!

All I did was look up the part number to see if it was the same as the 6.0 trucks and thought it was odd when it also matched those older vehicles. Maybe GM has a warehouse full of them and thought it would be a good way to get rid of them all.

My buddy at gm just looked it up and from his end they are different p/n’s. 15-20 suv is different from 19-20 HD truck so I dunno. He was gonna get his parts guy to look them up.

Probably bad info on my end. This is the part # I am seeing
ACDelco 24284077

 

[LBZ]

This is the p/n he found

According to summit though that converter you found does fit a pile of shit including the hd trucks.
The one my buddy gave me doesn’t even fit a 2020 that I could find. Only like a 2015 1/2 ton so I dunno. Something is fcky.

 

[ShopSpecialties]

I saw that one also and it is coming up for 6.2 on some GM sites. So I dunno.......

LML is gone. Probably to America.
The new ride. I’ll get better pics once America stops sending it’s smoke up here.

It made it past Michigan,

We've had some beautiful sunsets the last couple weeks due to it.

I haven’t seen the sun in over a week

17mpg average over 500 miles hand calculated. Bang on with lieometer. Mixed hwy and city driving, towing my little utility trailer around for 120 miles. Doing 75 - 80mph on all the new highways. Not terrible I’d say for brand new gas 1 ton

Sun in our area has just been a little orange ball for about a month now. Just cleared up yesterday. First time seeing blue for weeks

Yeah it’s pretty impressive with those trucks are getting. I hope it turns out to be a great motor. I don’t wanna try and keep my old 6.0L around forever.

How is the truck doing ?
