Default I can use more info on a 4L80E swap

ok all you transmission guys, IM also VERY interested in the answers because I purchased a 4L80E to install in my 1985 corvette when I do the swap to the big block engine , because theres no 700r4 thats going to handle the torque numbers that engine will produce, so any info will be greatly appreciated, on how to find cheap ECU/TRANS controllers OR how to modify the 4L80E trans to full manual control. hopefully theres some knowledgeable trans guys on THIS SITE that can help!!?? converters available ? lock up/non-lock-up? performance shift kits? ETC. IM SURE MOST GUYS CAN USE GOOD INFO! heres all the links Ive found......... NO! NOT ALL THOSE QUESTIONS ARE FULLY ANSWERED IN THE LINKS

does anyone have the part number for that manual converion KIT,? or other usefull info?, instructions on the conversion? programing and installation info on the electronic controllers?, part numbers and prices? other options?
does anyone know where a diagram for the connections can be found?
differances between the differant year 4L80E transmissions?
how do the 4L80E trans differ from year to year?
what are the part numbers for the TRANS CONTROLLERS
WHAT STALL SPEED CONVERTERS ARE AVAILABLE and with lock-up?
which are the best built?

Try talking to Geoff Skorupa at Performance Technical Center in Elk Grove Village, Illinois (847-228-7256), he's at the PRI show in Indianapolis and probably won't be back until Monday.

Geoff made the custon tailshaft and modified the C-member on John Meaneys car. http://users.stargate.net/~gfalbert/johnm.htm

He's putting a 4L80E into my car now, I paid $2600 for a slightly used Rossler built trans w/computer and a Vigilante 2600-2800 lock-up converter.

Hope this info helps and good luck with your project
