Re: CK PERFORMANCE BUILT 4L80E MANUAL W/TRANS BRAKE

This thread is worthless without pics!!

I am very interested in installing a 4L80e, for my new motor, as its basically a TH400 with an OD (internals-wise anyways).

What kind of flexplate did you use? What did you do to the crossmember to get the trans to fit? What shifter did you use?

Re: CK PERFORMANCE BUILT 4L80E MANUAL W/TRANS BRAKE

I know this thread is ancient, but im looking into buying a 4l80e from ck performance also. Ive talked to chris on the phone once and he seemed like a good guy to deal with but how was your experience with him, and mostly how is the trans holding up. Im just concerned about dealing with a company I found by searching online and I cant find many people who have dealt with him before.

Lots of info on his 200-4R parts on turbobuick forums. You'll find some feedback there.
