Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E

with this tranny being so much bigger, and the mount being 2.5" higher up then the 4l60e.... i was afraid it would interfer with the trans tunnel, so after a few measurements, i desided it would interfer....so i put the cab back on the frame (with the help of the wife) to see where and how bad it was interfering......after we got it on i had her look to see where it was touching and i marked it from inside.....so i cut the hump out, and set the cab completly down.....and with the engine moved back as it is on this truck, it sits close to the firewall, but fits the contores of the firewall like a glove......it looks awsome sitting up on the firewall, they couldn't of done a better design back in 71 to make a new engine fit so good.....
here are some pics

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

yes the LH8 pan will clear, but the camaro pan is still shallower......and we're gonna be low, so ground clearance is a concern.....

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E

it is a 18" dual row cooler, can be got from summit, jegs, ebay, etc.....
i use -6 AN fitngings and -6 braided lines, these too came from summit/jegs......compaired to the "traditional" rad. mounted ones
this cooler is designed to disapate heat by haveing BOTH internal and external heat dissipating fins also this heat sink design produces high heat transfer with minimal airflow... unlike the traditional radiator mounted ones..... haveing said that it is designed for a non-lockup converter trans cooling needs, so with a lock-up converter, it should work out really well..

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E

I tried to look back and see if you said anything, but there is sooo much stuff to look through! Did you leave the outer part of the air vents open to allow for drainage? Or do you have some way of cleaning em out? Just wondering since you blocked them off from the inside. I do like how you mounted your fuse block, looks sharp!
