The GM
6L80 transmission is a six-speed automatic designed for rear-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive vehicles, widely used in Chevrolet and GMC trucks, SUVs, and performance cars. It features a clutch-to-clutch shifting design with no bands, improving durability and shift consistency under load. With a wide gear ratio spread, the 6L80 offers strong low-end torque multiplication for towing and acceleration, while its taller overdrive gears help reduce engine RPM at highway speeds for better fuel efficiency. An integrated TCM (Transmission Control Module) is built into the valve body, allowing precise control of shift timing, line pressure, and adaptive learning based on driving style. Heavy-duty internals and robust construction make it a popular choice for both stock applications and performance builds.
