71 LWB 6.0/4L80 swap

I am gathering parts for the swap, I have a LQ9 motor/trans from a Van that had 16k miles on it.
Since from a van the dipsticks are a mile long. Will a 05 GTO oil dipstick tube work? got one of those in the garage.
I will find an trans dipstick/tube and an oil filler neck.

I hope to get started on this first part of May and will try to take pix and document this.

Re: 71 LWB 6.0/4L80 swap

here is a dirty pic from 4.5yrs ago.
109k original miles.
Wife's Grandfather bought new.
350 w/Qjet with TH350.

I have already added a tow hitch and air shocks. Got to load up the trailer/car and see what else in the suspension I need.

I will be also adding a new MC/Booster, stock is manual disc/drums.
