Re: 1968 C20 Pickup Trans Swap Questions.... 4L80e

Okay cool, so as far as the tunnel im glad to know im safe. Driveshaft will be a figure out as I go situation for what works best and then I have been looking at buying the MSD Atomic trans stand alone controller and then I believe that has a digital read out for the speedometer but I planned on doing the electronic to mechanical adapter setup anyways. Unless I need a different controller to do that...? But Also has anyone pulled the 4 speed sm465 without removing the tunnel or pulling the engine and just chopping the trans mount out to drop it?? When I had pulled the junk 350 out of it to drop in the bulit engine I know it seemed barely possible to even shake the trans around sitting in the truck because of the high sitting top load shifter on it... So hoping chopping the trans mounts out will let me come back enough and straight down to clear the hole in the tunnel with ease...
