timestalker45 Posted July 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 then why did the guy say to use mine i rember some where on this post some said i could use my old intake and run it off the ecm? or will the new sfi work off the ecm too just not the tranny? The idea to keep cost low was to change the engine to a 3400 use my intake and stuff run of ecm and use my 4t60, now im lost again also i was going to ask any way but isnt the bell houseing on the 4t60-e diffrent from the one on the 4t60?

19Cutlass94 Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 did you not read everything everybody told you? You use the 3400 intakes. The 3400 will bolt up to your tranny and your ecm will run the fucking motor. The belhousings are the same. That "E" stands for electronically controlled which has absolutly nothing to do with the bellhousing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timestalker45 Posted July 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 ok now i get it i just didnt think my ecm could run the sfi do i need to buy a chip? if i got the preformance chip would that work with the 3400? the bellhousing q was only because i been told the 4t60-e was diffrent in shape Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GP1138 Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 The bellhousing might be different in shape but the bolt pattern is the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timestalker45 Posted July 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 ok, also any idea why my e-brake light is staying on after it does the self test? i tested the the continuity between the tan with a white stripe whire from the fluid sensor to the e-brake switch, it came out fine, but then i tested continuity between the black wire that goes to the sensor to the tan wire that goes to the sensor and got continuity too plus i had resistance of .330ohms from my understanding the black and tan wire should not have any concetion but from the sensor if it turned on correct?

timestalker45 Posted July 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 a 3.1mfi is a diffrent set up than a 3100sfi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GP1138 Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 a 3.1mfi is a diffrent set up than a 3100sfi Not radically. Dude, you're not going to find anything that tells you step by step, exactly tailored for your car. The people that created that guide didn't... they knew they were going to be doing something that isn't an exact science, and they were creative enough to find solutions for problems they encountered. If you're really that ambitious, why don't you follow that guide as close as possible, and when you encounter specific problems, use the search button on this forum, or ask a question, instead of constantly asking the same question over and over, and getting the same answers.

Andrew Posted July 31, 2007 Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 Dude, you're not going to find anything that tells you step by step, exactly tailored for your car. I just wanted to reiterate this for anyone else who may ask the same question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GtipGary Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 I was wondering... How much power can the 4t60-e actually handle? Ive heard that the Lq1 comes stock with about 185hp and that the 4t60e can handle roughly 215hp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive heard that the Lq1 comes stock with about 185hp and that the 4t60e can handle roughly 215hp. LQ1= 210-215hp tranny should be good to under 300hp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GtipGary Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 Really... wow! i guess i should stop listening to Timmy/Shocktherapy! im refering to the 94 Lq1 tho i know the 96 one has a different intake and obd2 which gives it more hp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
