Advance adapter 50-0405 pictures needed

[hemi43]

I will be installing a 4L60E and mating it to my NP 205 soon, but I want to machine my own adapter. I will be buying the 50-6900 output shaft because at $180.00, I can't really make it cheaper.
The price for the aluminum adapter however is quite steep especially living here in Canada, so I was hoping some member may have some close up pictures that would help me fabricate my own.
Thanks.

I ended up thinking the same as you and folded my cards. Bought the entire kit from AA but thru Summit Racing. I decided the headache wasn't worth it. They spent the $$$ designing all these parts, I'd rather go the easy way and cross that part off my build list...

Also - I'll get you any pics you want of mine. Let me know what you need.

The dollar exchange right now is crap, and just to get the adapter and shaft will cost me almost $800 with brokerage and duty. Making the adapter itself will only take a few hours, but will save me almost $500 for that part alone.I have a CNC plasma cutter here at home, as well as a full machine shop, and enjoy making parts, so it will be a "win-win" situation!! :-)
I would love to see a rear picture of the adapter where it bolts to the transmission, and would also like to know the exact thickness of it.
Thanks.

I have the layout and bolt circle dimensions for the 4L60E transmission side in CAD.
I own a machine shop and I was planning on making my own adapter as well but I decided to use a NP241 transfer case when I discovered my 205 had a bunch of bad parts in it.
I never finished the design but I would be happy to send you the file for the transmission side for the 4L60E.

Hmm, you don't per chance happen to have the dimensions of the trans side of the bellhousing for a 4L60E do you? I can't seem to get measurements close enough for Solidworks to take them by measuring hole centers.

Oh FYI, I'm trying to make an adapter to mate a 4L60E Bellhousing to a 4L80E pump.

No sorry...I was at the other end..............I do have a spare bellhousing that I'm using in my mock-up. If you're not in a hurry, when I get it back out, I will set it up on the mill and locate the hole dimensions for you.
It's for an LS1 (has the top block mount hole at 12:00 position) but if I understand correctly, you want the hole pattern where it bolts to the tranny, not the block?

I know of at least one person that had to machine an AA adapter to fit...
