Came across a good deal on a 4L80e from a 2002 a couple weeks ago. My boy and I started taking some of the front end apart on the brown truck. We did a compression test on the 454, which was pretty good. We'll continue stripping off the front sheetmetal and pull the engine/tranny when we have time on a good weather day. He wants to use the engine in his own future truck project. He's pretty much a broke college student right now, but he's dreaming and I don't discourage that. He wants a 67-68 step side.
