Pretty sure the answer is no to all 3.

I think they make motor mount adpaters/brackets for you to buy, the crossmember will have to modded to work with a 4L80 or a new one built and the driveshaft will not be the correct length when using the 80e.

Without a doubt...A lot of ankle biters to swap out but it can be done. Enjoy...!!!
