Default Built 4L80E

Built 4L80E for sale. Rebuilt from scratch, numerous soft part and hydraulic modifications. BRIEF rundown

6 count direct
Dual fed direct clutches
Rollerized
Several pump modifications w/ new Sonnax boost valve
Hi Energy clutches

And much, much more. Will give a full break down to anyone seriously interested in buying. I'm a very reputable builder, many of you know me or have a trans built by me (or know someone who does) and know I don't build bullshit. This bad boy's gotta go however.

$2,000 (This is a HUGE discount). Happy holidays!

EDIT:

I'll make this a very, very limited time thing. I'll cut someone local (in or around the Houston area) a good deal on this thing to get it moving. Had a buyer that fell through. I've got some bills I need to pay. Let my misfortune be your gain.

PM me and let's make something happen.

This guys did my trans and it works fine with the exception that I didn't have the cash for a new valve body that does not hold 2nd gear WOT shifts. He even told me he wasn't sure how well it would work because it was not a factory part. He knows his stuff.

Thanks again, I'll let you know when I can have to install a trans brake and valve body.

Any GM RWD trans but I don't touch 200-4Rs. Pricing varies wildly as they are all different, some are cheap while others are twice as much due to certain parts used in the build. I'm in the Houston area.

It's too much of a bitch to build and I have little experience with them. Few builders touch them, probably only a handful of people out there who can actually build one worth a damn.

It's hard to give a concrete number because what it can hold in one setup could be very different from another. For example, a certain transmission could shine in a turbo car whereas it may not be up to par in a nitrous car, or a car that spins to the moon. Horsepower ratings are more of a general guideline to give people something to focus on and get an idea, as there's so much more that goes into transmission survival than just power numbers.

Tentatively, I'd say around 750-800hp to be on the safe side, but very similar units have gone higher without ever having any problems. It's just out of my comfort zone, and as a builder you have a tendency to want to cover your *** and make sure the trans is slightly overkill whenever possible.

I wouldn't normally have a problem doing a trans trade for partial credit but I wouldn't be able to give you the price you would probably like whenever I have cores available. A working transmission is inherently a bit more valuable than a core, but it's a moot point for someone like me who rebuilds them from scratch anyways, know what I mean?

Shiiiiit well you do realize that if you do end up with one by that time, I am entitled to a ride just because, right?

I just declared a mechanical engineering degree as my major, so hopefully once it's all said and done I'll be able to go shopping for a Z, or maybe a Viper if I'm feeling frisky.

Would strongly prefer to keep it local-ish, but may consider
