4L80e swap
Into an SSS, do I have to put a 2" body lift to make the trans clear the tunnel? I am thinking of grabbing one for a swap in the future, but I don't really want to put a 2" lift on the truck to make that happen.
thanks guys.
thanks guys.

I have never heard that. Whoever the "everyone" is telling you that they are full of crap.

DAMN 
Thats a serious write up. I fully believe that I am capable of achieving the 80e swap successfully, my concern is down time. I don't think I will be able to have the truck down for the amount of time required to measure DS lengths, and work out any kinks that will probably arise. It got me thinking, what is a fully built 65E capable of in terms of AWD abuse? I am thinking of going as far as using a trans-brake and launching at 3500 on a 125 shot. Would a built 65 take that, or would it still grenade?
What would be required to convert a 60e to a 65e? I see a lot of 60s on ebay for cheap, and would be pretty interested in building one up.
