Default 4L80 shifter/4th gen Camaro

Question for the guys using the stock 4th gen auto shifter for a 4L80.
How did you mount the 60 bracket on the trans?
thanks

I pulled off the 60E bracket. Then got the 80E bracket and enlarged the hole so it would fit on the 60E cable. I had to make a notch in the plastic locating pin on the cable, slid on the bracket, rotated it a little, put in the keeper pin, used a 60E shift lever. Works!!

I decided to give the 60E bracket a try and see how that looked. I have a long (shifter) shaft in my trans. I got a stock 60E shifter arm, attached it, snapped on the 60E shifter bracket on to the cable, held it up and it looked really close. I wound up making the holes oval about a 16th or so to the center, making the holes closer together. Using the stock 80E pan bolts, it bolted right up. Trans in Park and shifter in park, the cable lined up perfectly with the arm. Pics attached. Thanks for posting that link. I also cut a hole in the floor for the electrical connector and rear lube line even tho I used banjo fittings. I could not get the trans angle that I wanted without cutting holes.

Elongated holes in the 60E bracket

Bolts up with stock bolts

Alignment is good
