Re: 85 C10 LT/6L80 Frame off build
Love the setup(s) and the truck is clean as hell. excellent work. I found a 6.2 and 2wd 6l80e, with harness, accessories, and driveshaft, out of a 2012 silverado with 116k miles for 5 grand. Been thinking all day about changing out my cammed L33 and 4l65.
I read some people saying the 6l80 isn't as strong as a 4l80 and can't hold much more than 400hp. Any concerns with yours? or are you staying relatively mild with the LT?

Re: 85 C10 LT/6L80 Frame off build
Rear-end build time, for years I've been using Richmond gears with no issues. I like how they have the pinion depth on the pinion head, makes set up much easier. I will also be using their Richmond Excel axles and set-up kit to freshen up the 30 year old 12-bolt.
