I have entertained the 4L80E just for the challenge of converting it to manual shift. It looks like it could be a fun project and equally fun to drive. I have to believe that one could be had for a reasonable price at a bone yard.
This one may sound like a good deal,but never came in the trucks mentioned.He may have gotten it from one regardless.I don't see a torque converter mentioned either.Add more to the cost.Around here, $150.00 is for a rebuildable case.
Then,how do you know it's good?May need a rebuild too.More money.
I wouldn't buy one unless you can drive it beforehand!
$350.00 to $400.00 should buy a good usable th-400!
