Also, I'm not sure what pump came in your trans, but if it's a 10 vane I'd go to a 13 vane.

 

i will find out when i open it up. money is running low now been buying little **** i need that eats up a lot of cash.

 

Transmissions (TH350, TH400, 700R4/4l60/e, and PG) actually stay pretty reasonable in price until you need to support HUGE power levels. My 4l60 ran me about $600 in parts and was good for 600tq, my TH400 is running me $350 in parts and good for a TON more. The converter is where you'll spend your cash.

 

yeah i wanted the th400 really bad but i didnt want to gear it really high to go down the highway. so i opted for the 4l60. i found a 5.3 bellhousing cheap but idk if it will work or not? i ordered a stock replacement balancer and longer wheel studs for the rear wheels and spacers. now i need the adjustable panhard so i can have a roller instead of a shell.

 

If the bellhousing was on an LSX based motor with a 4L60E, it will fit.

 

yeah i knew it would fit the engine and transmission just didnt know about the transmission tunnel of the car... thanks for your help. its been raining all day so no chance of getting the engine bay done today. so maybe i can take a peak at the internals of the 4l60 and work on my shortblock some more.

 

I thought I read somthing about the shifter linkage having to be changed when using truck 4l60e's. Can someone verify this for me?

 

That sounds right as the truck has a column shifter and an F-Body has a floor shifter.

 

glad i got it cheap! all the crap i have to get to make it work right!

 

I know the feeling Im going 97 LT1 M6 to LS A4. Seems like the parts-to-get list never ends. Wife keeps asking how many more parts is gonna take!

 

yeah im lt1 m6 to 6.0 a4 and my wife keeps asking me how much more do i need? and when she gets to drive it!?!? i just laugh and say never

 

I guess I'm the odd-man out..I dont have a wife.. That and when the speedo gets over 100 the GF just sits back and shut's up cause she know's I'm concentrating..lol

 

ive never been over 100 with my wife, but i have been 155 in the ta twice in mexico

 

You're not the only one here buddy.

 

Ya cause you have a husband..

 

Your sister's not THAT bad looking.....

 

to run the l92 heads on my 6.0 i use the stock ls3/l92 head gaskets right? i have read on here to use lq4 and ls3? (not combined)

 

LS3/L92 gaskets will work fine, but I plan on using L76 gaskets for the tiny bit of compression difference. The L76 was a 6.0L with L92 heads (Pontiac G8 for one) and the gaskets have a smaller bore than the LS3/L92 ones.

 

I have Cometic MLS 4.085", .041" thick.

 

IIRC, LS2s work too @ 4.065? Feel free to correct me on this anyone.
