The 6L80 (and similar 6L90) is a six-speed automatic transmission built by General Motors at its Willow Run Transmission plant in Ypsilanti, MI. It was introduced in late 2005, and is very similar in design to the smaller 6L45/6L50, produced at GM Powertrain in Strasbourg, France. It features clutch to clutch shifting, eliminating the one-way clutches used on older transmission designs. In February 2006 GM announced that it would invest $500 million to expand the Toledo Transmission plant in Toledo, Ohio to produce the 6L80 in 2008.

The Hydra-Matic 6L90E transmission was introduced by GM to handle the increasing power of 3/4 ton and 1 ton Chevy and GMC Trucks. The 6L90 automatic six speed transmission is the heavy duty version of the 6L80E transmission. The 6L90E transmission has stronger input gear sets with six pinion gears and also a strengthened output gear set that has wider gears than the 6L80 transmission.
Here at Smart Parts we have given this precision workhorse a performance overhaul. Our long list of upgrades make the 6L90E transmission heavy duty enough to handle the toughest of hauling and off road conditions encountered by the Yukon or Sierra. At the same time the 6L90 has the fine tuning and tight tolerances needed to handle the extreme RPM's and power created by the ZL1 Camaro.
