If you have a 80e converter made with a 60e 3 bolt base you will be fine.

Now as far as what you should do Kurt... that's another question.
TCI and J@W both make flex plates that will bolt up to a 8 bolt LSA crank and use a 80E converter

That's good to know! I was just gonna use the factory lsa flexplate, but the aftermarket tci flexplate makes more sense! Makes it a lot easier to get rid of the converter if you ever need to!

Sweet! Did you notice the two diffrent part numbers? They have one part number for 09-11 years and another part number for the later years? Been trying to find out if there are any differences? Only thing I've come up with so far is something about diffrent bearings that Gm uses? These are the two part numbers, 09-11 12603616, and the other one is 12641691
