Yes, the block itself will bolt straight up to a 4L60e transmission.

Keep what you had previously to make it fit the same.

If your 4.8 came with a dished flywheel then transfer that over because your torque converter will bolt right up to that.

If its actually an Lq9 it already will have the same flexplate as your 4.8.
