Hey guys, I have a new Cahall Performance Pro Race 4l60e and Vigilante converter that I hope to use behind a B15 LSX that I'm installing in my 96 Impala SS.

I have read a lot about using LT1 60e's with 6 bolt LS stuff but never 8. I can't seem to find the parts I need to make this work. I am assuming that first I'll need an 8 bolt flex plate spacer to create the right spacing for the 60e converter and then i'll need an 8 bolt flex plate that has provisions for the LT1 converter bolt pattern. Does this even exist? I found adapters for 6 bolt LS to LT and adapters for 8 bolt LSX to 4l80/5E but nothing to convert to an LT 4l60e.

Any ideas on how to get this done cheaply are appreciated!

 

Nobody? I was told we had some pretty knowledgable vendors here. First one to points me in the direction of a cheap/effective way of making this work I'll be buying the parts from if you stock it. :-D

 

Sounds like you basically need an LS(dished) flexplate for an 8 bolt crank and a crank adaptor(FCALS). We stock the Meziere flexplate that will accommodate you but by no means is it cheap. -Dalton
$503.99 for the flexplate.

This is assuming your LS motor is a short crank and your Vigilante converter is an LT style(298mm) converter.
