Default LS swap shifter??

Hey Guys. What are you guys using for shifters with your 4l80e swaps?? Do they have to be 4l80e specific or any one that can work for a turbo 400? Thanks!

Just go to Summit or Jegs and go to the shifter section. Then it will allow you to narrow it down by transmission.

What kind of car?
Check out shiftworks, which is where I got mine for my 68 camaro. It just converts the stock horseshoe shifter, which I thought was the coolest.

I have a B&M Quicksilver. It has a 5/16" pin you can remove to get the extra gear. I changed from a th350 to a 700r4 and it worked great. Since the 4l80e has all the switched on the trans, you don't need all the electronics in the shifter. I used it with a manual valve body, and this is the second Quicksilver I'va had and they work flawlessly.
