Well, I am sure I am in the top ten for having the most threads closed.

Right up there also for folks not understanding what I post.

But when did GM offer a AUTOMATIC Z06? Because I think the car sounds like an automatic.

I'll bet there is nice stall on that 80E also.

That's too bad because now it doesn't have the 5 yr 100K warranty

pretty sure a few other things would alter its warranty status before the transmission.

maybe you should look up the magnusson moss warranty act? lol

Looks almost identical to the one a local shop, Xtreme Auto, built. That one's been rocking an auto for sometime now. Good lawd that thing is fast though.

We'll have some videos of my buddies 03' zo6 with a 402 and a F1 with an automatic conversion from KK Performance.....He almost went with the RPM 4l80, but 12k is a hefty sticker.....

Automatics and Corvettes. I won a contest with Oldsmoble back in 1970. I was invited to tour the factory with a stop over at the tranny plant.

They had an auto strapped to 70 Corvette with a 454. I remember mid to low 10's

Bottom line thats a nice car. I would love to see the expression on the face of the $100,000.00 ZR-1 driver. When he got his doors blown off by a Z06.

I wonder why the folks that make fun of automatic vehicles haven't posted?

4L80E is basically a th400 with an overdrive. We have a trans brake on it but havent used it yet.

Made 964 when it was 6 speed.


Brake light is fixed now. It worked on the first run or two in the vid. Just burnt out i guess. Wasnt too concerned about it at the track

Actually, a few other shops have put automatics in C6 Z06s already (4L60s and even a couple 6L80s) but this is the first 4L80 conversion I believe.
