3800 Transmission type???

[zeez gtp]

I am looking at the Thrasher Shift Kit.

What is the difference between the 4T65-E and the 4T60-E? Which one do I have? I have a 98 gtp. Thanks

the tranny for the GTP is 4t65-HD

 

[zeez gtp]

So does that Thrasher Shift Kit not work then on my car? On pfyc.com it says it is only for a 4T65-E. On thrasher, it says nothing about a 4T65-HD. I am confused

get the 4t65e

 

[zeez gtp]

Ok I will, But how come there are different numbers? I just want to know what the numbers are for. Thanks

the HD is just has some beefier components compared to the non-HD, but it is still the same case and positioning and all that, and many of the internals are the same

You might want to email Miker he will be able to answer this and you might even be able to order ir fron him.

the 4t60e's are on grand prix GT's and se's


and other 3800 series motors(non supercharged) as well I believe.

Actually, the 4T65-E is on GT and SE's, I believe.

I e-mailed PFYC.com and they said I have the 4T65-E on my 2000 GT.

I know for a fact that my friends 1997 3.1L Grand Am has the 4T60 trans, because he tried to sell me a shift kit from it, but it wouldn't work.

In 97 the 3800 N/A GPs had the 4t60 in them. In 98 and up they all have the 4t65e. 97-03 GTP has the 4T65e-HD

 

[blitzu]

The 4T60 was used in some early on 97 GT's, the 4T60 is hydrolic controlled using preasure to comand shifts. The 4T65 E ("E" standing for electronicly controlled) which is in mainly all GT's, and then the 4T65-E HD (heavy duty) used in the GTP's.

You can tell what transmission you have by looking at the codes on your trunk lid... look for M15 in all those codes that means you have the 4T65-E, code MN7 is the code for the 4T65-E HD.

 

[zeez gtp]

sweet thanks, so i can still order that thrasher shift kit then right?

 

[blitzu]

Yeah, but try to get it from Miker though... he could probally get it cheaper.
