In 97 the GT had the 4T60E and some SE's came with it, the GTP had the 4T65E-HD, 4T65E was not a vacuum controlled trans. So the 97 GTPs you do not have to worry about the vacuum controlled transmission.

So in 98 all Grand Prixs had at least the 4T65E?

Should i be worried that when i got mine rebuilt the guy had a 4T60E booklet out?! Oh well it works so far. lol

Thanks for all the advice here. Seems like if its taken care of its good and I do believe in miracles so we will check it over and see what we can figure out.
