Why yes, I have. https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...d.php?t=395491

Matter of fact after numerous setbacks, I just got the tranny installed tonight. It made one hell of a mess when mine broke. Lots of carnage. Built 4l65e in now w/ Vig.3000 triple disk. I'll see how it goes in the morning. Do yourself a favor, get the HD shaft....

Get an 80e and throw it in there and forget it. Im sure you could have one in for around 1200.
