    4T65E Hardened 4th Clutch Shaft $64.95

    This is a new aftermarket 4th Clutch hub/shaft. The spines on the end are heat treated to prevent them from wearing and stripping out which is a very big problem in these transmissions and will cause no 4th gear. GM started using heat treated shafts around 2003, so if your trans is older it will not have this and is highly recommended to install during a rebuild.

    4T65E Upgraded Input Shaft $449.99

    The stock input shaft is pretty much the first major weak link in the 4T65E and once you reach roughly 300whp it is only a matter of time before it will break and leave you stranded. We sell and install Intense Racing input shafts which are rated to aprox 500+whp and are a vast improvement over the OE part. Not only are these input shafts thicker and made of a stronger material than the stock piece but also have many revisions throughout including improved O-ring groove, new lube diverter tube installed, reduced slop on sprocket splines, and improved oil feed holes. These shafts are manufactured with extremely high quality and finish and made by the same company who makes the GM Racing team input shafts for their race transmissions.

    4T65E 7/8" Single Chain Conversion Set $299.95

    The stock dual chain setup works great but once you start making power above roughly the 325whp mark and make frequent track passes, especially with slicks, they will fail and break which leaves you stranded. These single chain conversion kits use a Borg / Morse HyVo 7/8" chain and estimated ratings are 400-450 WHP depending on application.
