I have an 80e on hold now, just gotta go get it.

As for the rims...I want to be the only guy in the 12's with steelys / and235 series tires

 

for the 80e you gotta do the crossmember right?

i thought about that to lol... instead ill rock my black steelys in the winter haha

 

yeah . I work in a shop with welders and such. Gonna add a few inches to the crossmember, pick up a used trans ,harness, yolk, dipstick tube, and converter. The only thing new I'll use is fluid and a tranny mount. I am cheap like that. I am getting it from the same place I got my lq4 and they give 101 days to return if you have any concerns. wish me luck !

 

youll do good, just think you got the 6.0 in your truck before you even got the title for it didnt ya haha. good luck bro, and get some real numbas

 

you need to add a fly wheel to that list.

 

And Beer

 

thanks, forgot to mention that..it came with the 6.0. Should'a done it all at once

 

Cut the part the tranny mounts to off the front off the crossmember and have it welded in the same spot on the back side of the crossmember and the 80e will bolt right up like it came that way from the factory.
The stock flywheel will work. You will need to drill some holes for the torque converter to mount to.

 

Here is how a .030 over 6.0 performs with the STS.

I have a forged 5.7 now and it makes more power than it did with the 6.0.

But, I have the 80e flywheel that came off the 6.0 when I did the swap. Thanks for the tip on how to flip the mount. Do Ineed to buy the 80 mount or will the 60 fit. The yolk is my biggest concern right now . Thanks again and nice vids
