Just finished my 80e swap up in a gravel driveway, and with someone who has never messed with an Fbody let alone anything LS, this swap was very straight forward and it all plugs together like legos. This video and LS1Tech will be your best friend.

Yeeeeessss turbo time baby. You already have the turbo might as well have the best in the game build a turbo kit.

@Autofaze 3 года назад

That's right! The old raffle winning turbo! Brad with Vasko Speed is a fabrication magician! Honored to get a kit custom made by him 🤘

@guysmiles2822 Год назад

Thanks for the video. Was wondering what you did for transmission cooling? Did you use the radiator or bypass it and install a external cooler?

@Autofaze Год назад

Trucool 40k, we did a stand up radiator for the turbo setup so it's just on the cooler 👍. Thanks for watching Guy!

@johnsimmons8456 Год назад

Not a cheap swap… Need a new driveshaft and yoke 4L80E Crossmember Converter SFI flexplate (if racing) Trans cooler: I like Tru Cool 40k OC-4739-1 Cooler fitting adapters to 6AN male Banjo fittings for oil cooler lines Trans cooler 6AN line kit External Wiring harness - (make your own) Dipstick tube - Use Madman MM-DT 4L80E 4L80E segment swap Depending on converter, may need Crank spacer, Pilot adapter, longer flex plate bolts… I’d run a pressure sensor in the pressure port also to log trans pressure…it adds up quick but lockup and OD is so worth it over the TH400

@Autofaze Год назад

SPOILER ALERT haha! It is a very expensive swap but gets rid of the garbage 60e and lets you retain overdrive! The plug and play harness we used was pretty seamless and needed no segment swap. The Tru Cool 40k is a beast of a cooler, running it on multiple vehicles. We also used the madman dipstick, it is like you are naming everything in the video! Thanks John for watching (if you did lol)!

You can use a stock torque arm with the umi torque arm relocator

@Autofaze 3 года назад

Hey Felipe! I forgot they made those kits. Yes you can, you'll need their 4l80e relocation kit which I'll put below. www.umiperformance.com/home/product/1998-2002-gm-f-body-torque-arm-relocation-kit-4l80e/

@shawng7902 Год назад

Those jumper harnesses arent super expensive in the grand scheme. If someone smart was to make a decent 60 to 80 harness about 12 inches long with a super low profile 90 on 1 end and car plug on other end, I bet they would be the only one anyone ever bought.

@Autofaze Год назад

For sure the price is insane on them right now! Appreciate you watching!

@tavarismickens927 2 года назад

Hey I had question and wonder could u guys help me? I have a 98 trans am and did the 4l80 swap , I have the 99-02 ECU upgrade with 4l80 segment swap and had my original harness repinned for that newer computer and trans but after installation I’m still gettin in limp mode? And pcu tuned correctly and harness wired correctly and getting 12v, I can’t figure out what else it could be

@Autofaze 2 года назад

Im not sure tbh, kc maxx, our tuner has us get that pcm of nc 80e to 60e harness. It doesn't do a segment swap, one modified the 60e shift tables based on the instructions. The ws6 drives flawless. I've heard of guys having those issue with segment swaps but don't have any experience with doing one that way. www.pcmofnc.com/product/pcm-of-nc-4l60-70-to-4l80-conversion-harness/

@brycegarrison2028 3 года назад

I also have a Holley system on mine so would I still need to buy that wiring harness?

@Autofaze 3 года назад

Holley makes their own 4l80e harness!

@cariodelgado742 Год назад

Nice video guys.i have El Camino with 700r and I want to change to 4l80e what kit I need to make that happen

@josemarquez7731 Год назад

What spacer did you use with the flex plate

@Autofaze Год назад

Did not need one with the circle d tq converter. Thanks for watching Jose!

@DanielRivera-td7cd 2 года назад

If I swap my tranny on my Maro, Do I need to reprogram the ECU? or after the change, the pinout will be like plug and play?

@Autofaze 2 года назад

Yes, you will need to reprogram when doing the 80e if you want the pcm to control shift points

@MrPacha098 Год назад

Did you guys use the same 60 trans shifter cable and bracket?

@Autofaze Год назад

Trans bracket was modified a tad. Thanks for watching!

@littlehall22 Год назад

Did you delete the torque arm with the swap?

@Autofaze Год назад

No, we switched to a tunnel mount before going 80e. Thanks for watching!!

We had to make a new driveshaft. Did you measure yours?

@@Autofaze it’s got no play at all… but thanks for the advice I will call up a shop 👍🏼

@Autofaze Год назад

@@SqueakyASSfardd if your driveshaft is bottomed out in the yoke that could definitely be giving off vibrations and noises. Ours did over 55

We didn't list it as we don't know if we will need a new driveshaft yet. I can look it up for you if your still interested 👍

@mikeverything4098 3 года назад

How much did it cost in total

@Autofaze 3 года назад

For this exact setup a hair north of 4k. This could easily be done for high 2s or in the 3s though. Get a cheaper converter, reuse your aftermarket 60e cooler, rubber transmission lines, ect. This car already had a chassis mount tq arm that we put on in 2020. Your biggest $ items will be transmission and converter.

I see other people using a 4l80 umi performance crossmember! How and why are you using the 60?

@Autofaze 3 года назад

What do you mean? We used the Midwest chassis 80e crossmember

@JoshuaGrooms83 2 года назад

I'm curious as well. Does anyone know if umi has a crosmember that works with their torque arm? I have their setup that takes it off the trans already, but id hate to have to swap my umi adjustable torque arm on top of already expensive trans setup
