cross member for the 4l80e in a 3rd gen camaro

I am putting a 4l80e in my 86 iroc. Does anyone offer a cross member and/or the relocation bracket for the torque arm for the 4l80e swap in a 3rd gen?

You should be able to use a regular automatic trans crossmember with the 4L80e. They are the same externally as a 700r4 IIRC. There are several aftermarket torque arm relocation kits out there available from the site sponsors or Summit/Jegs.

^ You're thinking 60E.

Bmr used to make a swap crossmember but its now discontinued and from what I hear it fit like **** anyway. You're in for some fab work. The Trans Mount is behind the point where the factory subframes end.

You're right, I was thinking of the 4L60e, not the 80
