He probably would take either, but the car does not have the harness for the 4l60, so the 400 might work. I 'll give him a call and see which way he wants to go...

What is the price difference (avg) between a built Th400 and a 4L80e?

and trbokmro if no one steps up, I have a T56 and spec 3, I might be interested in converting to a 400.. still undecided about the lack of OD though

I'm prob going TH400 soon. I want to go fast. Eventually the car will be procharged, etc. I don't want to spend any money on the T56 setup right now.

switching gears is the key for me. I know it doesn't help as a bracket racer, but it's a lot more interesting than just putting your right foot on the floor, your left foot up your nose, and your right hand up your ***.
