[Bob Kazamakis]

How much was your 4l80?

 

[ktraver97ss]

I probably would have if I didnt need to drive it everyday. Would have taken a while to get all the parts together for the swap.

I just ordered a fan for mine, 10" 1250CFM for $24 on siliconintakes.com. DO IT!

probably around 1hr one way b/c of jacked up traffic. I say gladly but i haven't even been able to touch it yet b/c i'm working so much sucks man, so Sunday i am going to be completely devoted to it

How much was your 4l80?

it was $850 w/72k on it. I had the shift kit installed and my guy said it was CLEAN besides a few slightly worn clutches for 2nd or 3rd
