so this isnt quite fbody related but is LS related so here it goes ...lol
just got a decent 2003 Chevrolet 2500hd that i plan on using as my DD and rarely tow vehicle for my trans am and k5 blazer, well i plan on doing a 6.0L swap to the k5 blazer sometime this summer as the 350 is dying, and also isnt LS XD, but i also wanted to originally get a 4L80e for the blazer also, well after getting this silverado i was wondering...
how hard would it be to take the 4L80e out of my 2003 silverado and put it in my k5 blazer and buy a 6L80e to swap into my silverado for better MPG and all?
i have HP tuners and etc, is it basically a swap and retune for new tranny or no?
thanks!

maybe im wrong, why im asking, not challenging but, dont the 6l80Es come in the 07-08+ 2500-3500hd trucks? thought they where the same as the 4l80E strength wise just a 6 speed not a 4
thanks for the responses though, yeah its still up in the air, just something i thought about if it was worth it or not
