6L80 to TH400 Swap

Well finally the day is here. Lethal Racing will pick up Whitey and start the next stage of transformation. After 3 years and 2 6L80 transmissions go bust. I am finally going to get rid of those POS 6L80's that love to flare shift. A list of parts for the swap.

RPM Stage 6 TH400 w/Trans brake and rev manual valve body.
Precision custom torque converter (3600 stall)
SFI Bell housing
B & M Pro shifter
B & M trans cooler w/ Fan
Custom drive shaft
GForce 1500 H.P. axles
BMR diff bushings
BMR drive shaft loop

Not yet but soon. Been fighting trans problems since installing the YSI. I have it set at 700 RWHP @12 PSI. The 850 RWHP @17 PSI pull was just to see what she would do.

Well TH400 by Lethal Racing is complete. Really looks like a factory install ! Top notch work by Nick and crew. Car drives great and I am having fun shifting the manual valve body. Took her on a hour highway drive to Cars and Coffee an hour away in Baton Rouge the day after picking her up. All went great and turned 2700 @ 70 MPH. Iron out a few more nick nacks and off to the track we go !!!

I really dont know, Lethal did the install. I can tell you that the fan is only about 1/8" away from the front bumper skin. Really close but it fits

This is pretty much what I am looking to do with my manual 6 Speed
Drop it and put in the turbo 400.
How much modding do you think there will be to make it work?
Thanx
