Re: high hump?

I'm wondering also. My future plans are for a 4L80E. When I retire I want to pull a large travel trailer around this great country of ours. I've got 7 1/2 years to get everything ready to go.

the 4L85E can take more abuse than the 4L80E just in case you didnt know already.

corvettejim1968,
No, I didn't know. Thank you for the info & the update on that. Sure glad I haven't purchased a transmission yet. That's what I love about this site everyone is more than willing to share information and educate.

Re: high hump?

Lucifer or anybody else that is interested, high hump vs small hump doesn`t matter, later model trans (auto ) will touch the seam that is on the lower firewall, this will have to be trimed and welded in the center six inches unless you are using the forward motor mount holes, if I remember everything that has been posted here in the five years.

Re: high hump?

What about a 700R4? Will that fit in a low hump?
