you may be able to just jam it in there if you are running it full manual, however.
It'd still be better for him to cut that "ear" off of the bell housing as well. I honestly don't see why people still bother with FMVBs for the 4L80E anymore when there are plug and play options for the same cost that let you have the best of both worlds.

^ What he said. He and I and the rest of us at the shop use a relay mod for customers who purchase a transmission for us, so the 98's can be controlled with the stock PCM
