As for the transmission, why did you go with the 80? Do you plan to add a power adder down the road? Or just looking at it from a stock vs stock the 60/65 wouldn't have been enough? Or maybe for 500 you just couldn't pass it up? Just wondering.
Not a big deal. I'm glad I got people here to give me a heads up on things before I find out the hard way!
I went with the 80 for its factory durability and because I plan to add a cam later on and already have a nitrous kit to put on so I figured why chance it with a 60/65? Plus it's the trans that came gm installed behind this engine in the first place.
