Petro · 11-05-2009, 04:47 PM

Wouldn't it be cool to use this in any application....

I take it this is the tranny from the G8 on roids.

Petro · 11-05-2009, 05:03 PM

Similar yep....

yz85608 · 11-05-2009, 06:11 PM

i seen the electronic paddle shift conversion at good guys in columbus, that would be awesome.

Not really, Its a 4L80E with extra gears added, and paddle shifting is an option. I saw it last year at PRI.

nastynova62 · 11-05-2009, 10:55 PM

it would be nice if along with it came a supercharger or something to make it worth 6k! but its an awesome trans with the ratio spread!

Kampz69 · 11-05-2009, 10:57 PM

sweet, i was just going to say that. theyve had these "six speed" 4l80e's for awhile. the paddle shifting option is pretty sweet

***philntx*** · 11-05-2009, 11:01 PM

It's too bad that 1st and 4th O/D ratios are the same as the stock 4L80 trans.
If they had expanded the range, now THAT would be something!

Kampz69 · 11-05-2009, 11:02 PM

^ yup....

Petro · 11-05-2009, 11:04 PM

I wonder how hard it would be to use the 6 speed auto from a G8....

That would be cool....But guys have been having good result with the 80Es none-the-less

its big, so getting it to fit might be interesting. plus controlling it would require two computers if you want to retain factory gauges according to jared.

Petro · 11-05-2009, 11:09 PM

I talked to few guys that have used the 80E in Dimes and they said it fit no problem..but the controller is apparently the issue

Kampz69 · 11-05-2009, 11:14 PM

no im talking about the 6l80e out of a G8, its wider and taller i believe, but a bit shorter than a 60e.

Kampz69 · 11-05-2009, 11:15 PM

oh and any ls1 computer can control the 4l80e as far as i know

Petro · 11-05-2009, 11:17 PM

I see what you were saying now...

01cherryreds10 · 11-06-2009, 12:27 AM

I think I looked this up a couple months ago and came across a board that said there were problems with this trans. I don't see how seeing TCI is building them. I'd love to have a paddle shift car

***SweetS10V8*** · 11-06-2009, 07:00 AM

Dont G8s have 6L60Es

01cherryreds10 · 11-06-2009, 11:39 AM

Yes 80's are for the trucks

hmm, i thought they (and the vettes, new camaros, etc) had the 80e with the 90e going in some full size trucks. after reading your comment and reading a bit online im not sure now...

here is the thread i was referring to with the size of the trans:

***deathphoenix99*** · 11-06-2009, 12:06 PM

I'd take any six speed tranny, auto or manual. LOL

Petro · 11-06-2009, 12:09 PM

Everything I've read is that they have the 80E....

Kampz69 · 11-06-2009, 12:16 PM

i saw a lot of that too, but when i would search for the 6l60e, there was a lot of info on new camaros, the G8, etc...even some fullsize trucks. i tried finding a link those GM sites that talk about the powertrain components but didnt find anything.

Petro · 11-06-2009, 01:09 PM

I know that this is a LSA motor and not a L76 but it has a 6spd Auto attched to it.... The casing does look like a beast...

Kampz69 · 11-06-2009, 01:15 PM

damn that setup is badass...and yes that trans looks massive.

Petro · 11-06-2009, 05:48 PM

Here's one from a G8....I don't think the trans would fit...

Kampz69 · 11-06-2009, 05:55 PM

it seems taller than the 4l60/80e's...i dunno how well it would or wouldnt fit.

Bdydrp02s10 · 11-08-2009, 08:36 PM

Just make it fit. It would be worth it.

Petro · 11-08-2009, 09:05 PM

It would definitely be cheaper than the one from TCI...

Kampz69 · 11-08-2009, 09:59 PM

^ exactly...6k for an 80e is a bit much

turbobandit · 11-09-2009, 06:06 PM

6L80e is where its at!!!!!!

Kampz69 · 11-09-2009, 09:57 PM

yup, someone needs to do it lol
