Did the 8l90 fit using a high hump transmission tunnel, or did you need to modify it?
Thanks

I swapped the 8L90E for a 6L80E. I haven't mocked them up, but I am on the thought that it will need a High Hump. A lot has happened over the year that has put a hold on my stuff. We got a new home with a nice shop to work on my stuff. Dealt with the Big C word (Now recovering). This spring I hope to get straight back on this and get it running.

Smitty, glad you’re moving forward. The big C is a miserable foe, but as I’ve learned from personal experience that never giving up is a huge key. I’m so down for this project moving forward. In the words of Joe Dirt, “keep on keepin’ on”.

If all goes right, this one comes back in line this summer. I have decided to change the drive train to 6.0/4L80E/14bolt 4.10.
