got the crossmember modded today didnt think mine would clear the pan with just the angle iron welded to the back of it and after taking measurements the mount on the 80e was 5.75 further back so just moved the center section 6" nice to have room for a deep pan down the road

need to clean and paint it still

Get some 4l80e AN fittings (make sure the rear fitting has that tube on it) to -6an, use some braided -6an line and put AN fittings on the cooler. I make them a little long so I can drop the trans without disconnecting the cooler so I dont make as much of a mess. If you have a non stock cooler its easier just to make the whole new lines instead of splicing on both ends.
