4L80 auto ZR-1's
Hi All
Looking to see if there is any interest in these. I will be making 4L80E tail housings to convert any 6 speed C4 into a bullit proof 4L80E trans. Basicly bolt on the tailhousing to a 4L80E trans use your stock 6 speed C-beam and your stock driveshaft and go racing. These will sell for $650 Please reply here or PM me. Opinions welcome. Pete

Re: 4L80 auto ZR-1's
Pete, Interesting project. Do I understand correctly that the $650 does not include the 4L80E transmission?
Jim

I buy 12 if $650 inculded the 4L80E too
Pete are you looking at just tail housing, right? No need for new output shaft. On the yoke are you cutting down a late model truck or ? |

Re: 4L80 auto ZR-1's
If the jaw drop is for the price?
I'm making these here in the USA and the above price is cheap had a few other local shops qoute me you don't wanna know,they wanted double the above price each for 10 pieces. Seems most U.S. companies are hurting and they wanna make up on one costumer. I'm sure there is somebody out there that will do it for less just a metter of finding them,it's like looking for a needle in a hay stack. China will make this for $10-$20 each for 100 pieces. Now you know why China is kicking our butt. Pete

No need to replace/new output shaft. No, you use stock yoke/driveshaft and C-beam. Basicly buy a 4L80E trans install tail housing install in car and reinstall your stock driveshaft and C-beam. You will also need auto shifter,cable,flexplate (i have),etc. If you wanted to text your friends while driving the Z, auto is the way to go. Pete

Re: 4L80 auto ZR-1's
The jaw drop was for an auto in a ZR-1.
I think the price is cheap. |

Re: 4L80 auto ZR-1's
Hi Pete.
Give me the design and i will do it here in czech or Kuwait,i think cheaper . and ship it to you. . 1- Can you tell us, what material you gona use? 2- Is this One piece casting product OR multi-welding pieces? Very nice Idea indeed!!. If i broke my ZF ,maybe i go with Auto! I made once tail housing for my Supercharged 86 Vette for TH400. Last edited by HADI-ZR1; 09-14-2010 at 12:51 PM. |
