Re: 4l80 v 700r4

_Ogre, is right, the floor is pretty well flat so the sides of the transmission is no problem to get to.

Years ago I used a Th350, the only thing I did to help the fit was made a small indent in the removeable floor cover where the top of the trans case passed by the lower edge of the firewall. it wasn't necessary for fit so much as it made it easier to remove both the engine and transmission as one unit.

I just switched from the Th350 to a 4l80e. The 4l80e is longer but it didn't need any floor work to fit it in.

We do have a difference and that is I have a Camaro clip vs your original frame up front.
