[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 3556620, member: 9374"] Well, the LS9 stock with an Escalade tune should net me about 40 more HP than my stock L59 did - I didn't need or want any real HP upgrades, as most of them are at higher RPM and this is a grocery getter and family hauler. I haven't probably gone above 4k RPM in years on this truck, lol. I'll be happy if I can pull more than 12MPG out of it on the highway, honestly. If it does more than 15 I'll be ecstatic. 4l60e is getting rebuilt with some upgraded 5 pinion planetaries, I don't think I need much more than that for my plain old Tahoe. I'll just be happy if it ships in 2 weeks like I've been promised, then I can get it in and running by mid-May and have it available for vacation in NM with the family. That right there will save me near $2k on a rental vehicle. So here's hoping... [/QUOTE]
