styleandspeed Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 Wow, that looks exactly like what we have been waiting for. So who is going to be the first with the 80E? Aaron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonmalibuss Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 I see what you are talking about now. If you look back in this thread you will notice that this adapter has already been mentioned it's just and 80 output turned down and resplined with 60/65 splines there is some question as to how well or long it will hold. Some people say it will work just fine some people say it is weakend by being turned down. I couldn't really say either waybut there is a better way of doing this conversion which is a sure thing and will not be chance of weakening any parts in the trans or t-case!

I also thought that the 80-E tranny was 3" or so longer than the 60-E. Oh well, if my tranny goes(hopefully won't for a LONG TIME) I will be going the 80-E route.

The truck are about 3700-3800lbs so not as heavy as yours but they run 9.70-9.80's with no problems. I have a turned down shaft in my hand to put a 80E into my Typhoon. It was cryo treated and I am not worried on bit about it after seeing how beefy it is. My truck is 4100lbs with me in it and the new motor should be in the 1000hp mark at the crank.

chiel Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 Which 4l80E do you need? 4x4 or RWD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonmalibuss Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Which 4l80E do you need? 4x4 or RWD? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You will need the 4wd trans i'm not sure if it's any different than the 2wd trans though I think it's just the adapter that bolts to the rear of the trans that makes it either 2wd or 4wd but I could be wrong. Zippy would know this for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn't charging me anything for it and as soon as I recieve it you will know because I will post pictures of the shaft for everyone to view I will then have it reverse engineered, cut, and heat treated.

Jonmalibuss Posted March 25, 2005 Report Share Posted March 25, 2005 Good stuff! I'm still waiting on the input shaft I will call the guy at the end of next week if it doesn't show up. I hate bugging the guy since he is willing to send me these parts for what he paid for them ($0) and no cost for shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
