If you're bolting this 4L80E up to an LS engine get a cover off something like a 2004 van that came with a 4L80E. These bolt right up to the trans and the bottom two bolts on the engine.

I picked mine up at speedengineering.. Not as cheap at the one posted above but it works damn good. I wish all trans would come with a removable bottom half.

If I were looking for one I'd go to the dealer and ask for one for a 2004 GMC savana 2500 with a 4.8.
Thats what my work van is and it has the cover that bolts the 4L80E to an LS engine. It's not just a dust cover.

Yes, it is die-cast aluminum. Here some pictures of it, on my 1500HD.
