Not really worried about the relay. From what i have seen as long as you turn off a few tests and do the relay mod there is no ill affects.

 

You need the 80e dipstick tube, its different than the 60e.

If you are worried about the relay failing you can use a solid state relay, or even wire 2 or 3 relays in parallel...the chances of all of them failing is basically zero.

 

I presume you already have the correct AN cooler fittings or modified your stock cooler fittings on the trans end? I.E. the long rear one that extends into the center support?

 

I allready have AN fittings for my 60e now with the tru cool fittings as well. I got 80 fittings taken care off, see the post below

I have no information to add to this or these guys but good luck with the swap Corey. Hope it all goes well for ya man.

 

fuel pump runs off a relay, along with Electric Fans, if you use a quality relay you wont have a problem.

they arent having alot of amps run thru them for a transmission noid so the odds of them failing are slim.

 

Is the tranny all assembled? I don't have my manual in front of me, but I don't think that snap ring is supposed to be in that clock position. Maybe someone with a manual or experience (Vince) can chime in.

 

Hmmm yep the tranny is all assembled. That snap ring is supposed to be like that. The one above it i was told to installed it in the opposite position.

 

Hey Corey,
Although I did my swap awhile back I interested to hear how you might run the 4L80E on a 4L60E segment file. Just wondering if there are any advantages. Keep up the great work!

 

Thanks Bill, ya i will be sure to post up my impressions of the swap, i still need to get the instructions off my computer. Hopefully tomorrow when i have a spareoment at work
