[@ErikRose_]

that right there is a solid set up! 🔥

[@eddievazquez2330]

So i guess my question is im willing to upgrade so everything you described is what i will be needing for the conversion 😎👍

[@ErikRose_]

Yeah pretty much, just make sure to get the right transmission cross member the one I ordered was incorrect. But yeah transmission, crossmember, transmission mount, flex plate, conversion harness, a segment swap/tune, dipstick, torque converter, shift linkage bracket if your 4l80e doesn’t have it. Stock driveshaft should work by changing the slip yoke or getting a new driveshaft.

[@gloriamaletta8667]

The 4L80 is more sturdy than a 4L60 but l'm not a fan of the 2.48 1st gear ratio of the 4L80 the 3.06 1st gear in the 4L60 is better and if you throw a 6L80 in the mix it has a super low 4.03 1st gear whats the big deal well with a 6L80 trans with a 3.27 - 3.42 rear end gearing will leave from a dead stop as well as a 4L80 trans would with 4.30 rear gears and not only that but in 6th gear with a 6L80 trans and 3.27 - 3.42 rear gear will be much more pleasant and peaceful to drive on the highway at 80mph than 4.10 - 4.30 gearing would be in a 4L80 trans the difference at 80mph would be 2100 -2300 rpm with a 6L80 trans with 3.27 - 3.42 rear gearing and with a 4L80 trans with 4.10 - 4.30 rear gearing 2900 - 3200 rpm if both had lockup torque converters

just FYI you don't even have to rebuild a 4l80 for boost. a buddy of mine has a 4l80 in his drag truck that's making 1200 to the wheel with a 9.3 quarter mile time and all he has is a shift kit. although if you have more money to spare in not saying don't rebuild it but if you don't got the money you don't need to do that.

[@ErikRose_]

That’s awesome, got to get them started young haha. Honestly I don’t have much to complain about I’m pretty happy with the results. If had to choose some stuff I probably would have upgraded the clutch steels to kolene steels and as well as some other upgrades in the transmission but then again if you’re doing a factory rebuild it’s kind of irrelevant. But yeah just addressing common issues, just to make it that more reliable.

I just saw your video on the 4l80e conversion and you said the flexplate is on Amazon i have a 2005chevy silverado 1500 5.3 vortec LM7 too and it says that it doesn't fit . Is that because of the conversion to the 4l80e

it literally took 5 minutes and a small flathead to unpin 3 wires from that, unpin the black and tan wire, brown wire, and white wire. Put the brown wire where the white wire was, then take the other 2 wires and get a gm 254 connector from any parts store. To rep in the computer which you would have to do anyways, take the white wire located at pin 79 C1 (blue) needs moved to pin 22 on the other connector black and tan located at pin 42 C2 needs moved to pin 23 on C2. there you have it, a perfectly factory wiring that took 10 bucks for that 254 piece

Correct, you don’t need a new computer. All you need is the wire adapter and a segment swap/tune to get it going. You also need a 4l80e dip stick with tube, I forget to mention this in the video I think.

Ait so im new to the LS platform let alone transmission swaps on them. I'm looking to swap my tbss trans to a 4l80 and I'm looking at thw Michigan motorsports and from the tbss forums everyone is running PCM OF NC harnesses over the ict or Michigan ones.. thw price difference is ridiculous $350 for a PCM vs $100 for a Michigan.. did you encounter any problems?

[@ErikRose_]

Honestly the Michigan one has been great so far, but yet again I only have a few hundred miles on it. But I think it will be fine I don’t see it being an issue. I have seen some issues with people having an issue with the PCM, they just don’t require you to do a segment swap but might still need some tuning to dial in the shift points. I just prefer doing a segment swap and then dialing in the shift points.

No the torque converter is a different bolt pattern than the 4l60e and the driveshaft will work but you will need a 4l80e slip yoke and might need to shorten the driveshaft a bit.
