Thanks Tim!


I'm just using stock lines and will extend the rear line. I'm going to run a stock Circle D upgraded 80E stall. A little less stall than I have now but I will turn up the power if needed!

Sharpshooter and I have been working on it today. So far, we have the 60E and transfercase out, the 80E flexplate on, and we're about to mount the 80E to the motor after we take care of the cooler line. I'll be contacting you soon about a converter, as I am about to do an 80E swap as well.

What are the specs on the stock circle d 80e converter and how much? Do you have to send in an 80e converter core?
