The 4L80E in these have a trans mounted E-Brake along with a roller output making them not exactly swap friendly.
we have several groups of '07 - '08 workhorse w62 19,500gvwr step vans with 8.1 vortecs..

they have Allison hs1000 trans with driveline parking brakes..

while not an LS, could possibly be a good swap option for a work truck..

our older step vans do have the 5.7 and noticeably underpowered in the heavier gvwr category..
