Thanks. Going back to a single setup for now....I think twins are in store for this truck eventually

Worked for a bit tonight. Gutted out the old trans....I guess the broken case was a mixed blessing, because I found a couple other issues during the teardown.





Been wanting to do this for awhile....build a completely gutted LS1/4L80E for mockup purposes.

Had a toast LS1 sitting on the shelf



Welded the broken bellhousing ears back on to the trans case



Voila! Mockup goodness. It's kinda awkward shaped, but I can lift it by myself.
