Speed Engineering does them but it does cost about a grand more than a flp.
So what does an 80, installed, with all the new gear to go with it cost, including install? I might have to do that after my 1yr/12k warranty is up!

Dont know about the cost of install, I'm doing it myself. but the trans and kit is about 4 thousand, unless you go with a build flp 80e like parish has got, I think that trans costs alittle more.

Not too bad, I thought the FLP was $4000 plus? I can't complain too much. Mine has all the "built" parts possible and was just over $2000 (plus install).

And the PI is $900 roughly so about $2900. Not too bad. What are you on now, your 3rd one?

Because I just spent $2100 for the Trans, $900 for the Stall, and whatever it was for the labor to install the Trans just last week. I've yet to find anyone in the Phoenix AZ area that has heard of anyone even doing the swap to an 80 from a 65.

Well, that, and, my wife would kill me if I dropped another $4000 on a stinkin' trasmission!!

I think there is a lot more too it when doing something like an AWD Denali as opposed to a 2wd truck.
