Going in. It took several times up and down to get the jack adjusted right, the TC fully seated, even had some brackets up top get in the way. First couple times I started snugging up the trans the TC clearance wasn't there.
Stock 2500HD trans lines will work perfectly here.
The 60E neutral safety switch bolts right up. The new speed sensor plugged up right behind it.
Just some shots from the rear. Its still leaned down so that I could get to the bolts and things.

Ah, I get it.. Thanks for putting me to work. I needed it. I don't think there is any difference in clearance 80E to 60E along either side from the bell housing back. Just a tad bit wider in the bell housing area.

It's coming together 
Only issue I have so far is the trans line to the cooler up front. I can force it in and it will work... think I will just take the opportunity to upgrade the cooler and soft line them both with the new cooler.
I was really worried about the crossmember. It fits!
Buttoned up the TC. Don't know what I was thinking but you still have to roll around the engine and bolt it up just like the 60e. You also remove the plastic dust shields on the side of the engine used with the 60E. Not needed with the 80e cover.
Glad I trimmed the side trans and pan on the passenger side.
