Working on swapping a LQ4 6.0 into my 72 K10. Stock LS starter is fine. My flex plate was the flat version and all I had to do was enlarge the bolt holes...4L80E has 6 bolts and the TH350 has 3. My tranny is in stock position and it is a tight fit to firewall, but so was the HEI distributor. I did not want the hassle of adjusting the drive shafts as mine is a 4x4, so I went with stock position. Fired mine up last weekend just to see if it would run and it ran great.
