turbo 400 on an lq4 when i picked up my lqr engine, it had a 4l80e used on it (which i dont have) i am going to use a turbo 400 behind it
it had the spacer between the crank and flywheel, and the flat flywheel-is this spacing correct for a 400/converter
i know they make some kits for the other flywheels (4l60e) but thought i could use the 4l80e setup on a 400-thanks

if your 6.0 has the spacer on it,, leave it on,, you can bolt a th350 or th400 right up to that engine with no modifications, the flex plate will even have the large gm bolt pattern for the converter
same setup my s-10 has

you can also get a conveter made for a 400 to ls motor. the front hub on the converter is longer on ls applications.
or you can just get a crank spacer that slips over the converter thats made for the old style motors

the spacer actually gets pressed into the back of the crankshaft flange(the one made by hughes is about $45)

you need a ls1 style flexplate and then the spacer goes into the crank and then the converter snout sits in the spacer. I bought mine from summit made by hughes spacer and flexplate (needed a sfi flexplate anyway)
