Cleaned & painted trans. Had trans sitting around for while. Couldn't decide between Chevy Orange or Silver. Flipped a coin - silver

will brighten up the undercarriage a bit.

Trans is a 2001 built V8/4L60E (based on tag/top 12 o'clock bellhousing hole). Says 1CBD Ramos on tag - so was made (case at least) in 2001 at Ramos Arizpe, Mexico plant.

Was already low mileage rebuild when I bought it - upgraded sunshell, clutch pack, corvette servo, shift kit. Got Torque converter w/it, tag/part number shows should be 2000-2400 rpm stall.

Current challenges up next...ugh.
