Default Torque converter HELP ASAP.

picked up a 4l60e for my ls1 going into my nova. dude i got it from threw in a TC, he wasn't sure if it came from the trans he sold to me.




the trans is a 2FFD unit.....translating to a 2002 v8 LS car




the TC had a sticker TMBX 2422 7948




i scooped a rebuilt TC for it from AAP jus to get rolling and used the above mentioned as a core.




the TC i bought from AAP is not as tall as the one i received and returned as a core.




it seems there are 2 TCs that claim to fit a 2002 LS V8 trans GM92 and GM33CW




i seem to have the GM33CW in my possession




are the 2 compatible despite being different sizes.....AAP does list the 2 TCs as EXACT FITS to my 2002 camaro z28 ss

If I can keep it and use it.


any and all help appreciated because i can still return it and get the other one



The one i got from AAP

The one that i didnt get....but matches that TMBX code tbat3 was on thr one i returned as a core.



Blue one is shorter

Yea you need the gm92. The most relevant pictures are of the front of it.

An LM7 would use the same converter. Its still an LS based engine.

so your saying the lm7 would use the ''same converter'' as in the gm92? or the gm33cw?

i mean i know companies can screw up...but those 2 TC (gm92 and gm33cw) arent compatible?

so i should return the one i got and get the gm92?


appreciate the help here!!!!!!!!!!!!!
