4l80 questions Ok so I'm not very good with all this auto stuff and I'm strongly debating to go auto... Basically I want the simplicity of a turbo 400 swap but a overdrive like the new transmissions like the 4l60 and 80. Which brings me too ask with a manual valve body can u do away with all transmission computer with a 4l80e and how does converters work do u get a lock up converter? And is there other STRONG over drive trannys out there that would suit me better for what I want to do? Any info is appreciated
IMHO I would not go manual, it's old technology. But jakes performance has a manual box that you plug in and it allows full manual.. Or pm "slow67" and he can help with wiring your 4l80e to your stock tranny harness.

I want easy simple strength and overdrive with a auto and full manual is what I'd like for simplicity sake due to the fact I don't have to tune a tranny. The car is a 02 camaro with 9inch spool and 4.30s cam only for now

thanks for the reply...can i run that setup with a hurst quarter stick? Also do I have to run the vaccum modulator like everyone talks about...i am totally fine with a hard shifting car if thats all that happens with know. And the switch you talk about is that the same switch i see on your website the has three wires including the trans brake? sorry for all the questions, id just like to be as educated as possible before I go off and spend a good chunk of change on trans.
