i think when you know you have a good product and a good fan base you can do that and it works out well. a lot of companies are fighting hard for a piece of the pie and have inferior products or are so mass produced nowadays like holley that they've abandoned this approach. hughes seems like a great company.
This is one of the best transmission conversation on the internet thank you
Very informative vid Benny! Thanks for asking my question too 🤙👌
One of the few people i know that doesn't open their mouth far yet speak clearly, gets my thumbs up
A perfect person to explain wizardry. A super conversant Wizard, all those numbers and info just right there...awesome
I'm still chuckling over the "box of neutrals" remark.
Just seeing this. Thanks for pulling this together!
Al: How you keep a 4l60e alive. Hughes Performance: Stock Their Rubbish. Don't.
That's the best like to dislike ratio I've ever seen. Truly well done video, he knows his shit and explained it well. Thank you
Sooooooooooooo, autos are black magic and need an expert. Thanks for the in depth run down guys 👍
Damn, always great to hear from experts in their field

@@dandewar8403 you can 4L80E (or 4L85E) swap an LS-based vehicle and re-use the original PCM to run the 4L80E after performing a segment swap in the PCM via HP Tuners (or similar). We sell a conversion harness that installs between the 4L60E harness and 4L80E case connector to help make the conversion very simple instead of having to re-pin the vehicle harness. Harness part number 25-120 covers 4L80E & 4L85E transmissions from 1993-2006. Harness part number 25-121 covers 4L80E & 4L85E transmissions from 2007-on. 1991-1992 4L80E transmissions require an update to the 1993-2006 internal wiring harness & case connector (which we also have available).
Great vid Ben :) thankyou and Pete :)

Do you build a dump valve for turbo 350.
Tree Killers insight...🤔
If i am not wrong the ZF transmissions actually use a torque converter lock up clutch that uses fluid pressure to engage the lock up clutch and not disengage it somebody correct me if i am wrong.
he he, 'Turbin' pressure. Must be the pressure your turbin pushes down on your head.
I never knew Americans used turbans instead of turbines 😂🤣

@@HughesPerformance built alot of triple and "quad" friction converters? would think with how brutal a 2000hp 6bt is on torque, putting a similar lockup design behind a 1300-1800hp gasser would be a cake walk

@@whatchu_talkin_john_willis yep, multi-disc diesel converters are no problem. Built plenty. Building a lock-up diesel converter vs. a lock-up converter for a high-HP drag racing application require different approaches depending on what transmission is being used. The technology doesn't always cross over. A 5,000+ horsepower Pro Mod engine puts a whole different load and strain on parts than a 2,000 horsepower 6BT.
