It's rolling.

Pulled it out of the shop and took it up the street to check a few trans tables. Everything seems to be in check, this was just rolling into it and peddling a few times. Sounds amazing in person...

That is sweet !!

Do you have any finished pics of the oil pan / starter setup? What 2 axles did you end up with?

Thanks and keep up the great work !!

I'm bugging the **** out of him for a pan and mounts. From my research, the 2008 aND up 80e should be plug and play minus losing tap shift, otherwise it is t42 controlled just like ours so a little reprogramming and your golden.

Is there any way to retain tapshift with these other transmission options?

You looking to go solid mounts then? Figured if could sort an 80 then I can work on poly mounts.

Sound mean! Whats the word? Tuning complete? Will this car be traction limited or will the slicks get it done(17 inchers)? Any unforeseen issues pop up?
Dyno or track soon? Keep up the great work. Thanks

I'm unaware of any TAPshift for the 4T80.

The 6T7x series has TAPshift.
