4L80 conversion,trans brake,fresh COAN converter
Going back to stock(yes,really) selling a 4L80 conversion,trans brake,COAN converter setup for big turbo car,torque tube,offset mounts,C6Z rear,scattershield,billet spline drive off flywheel,SFI flywheel,shifter,cable whole assembly. Possibly C6Z rear cradle/arms as well. Asking $6500 for trans setup with converter and all misc pieces,add $1500 for C6Z rear. Trans was just freshed local,has NOT been driven since,converter just back from COAN,trans brake/VB assy just back from Rossler. ( As a note,this project has been a long road,I should note that JUST may translate into a year ago plus although car has NOT moved out of the garage)
427 LSX engine has been SOLD,Sorry !
Complete turbo kit and I use that term loosely. This has been setup and run(in the garage) NO boost,probably 10 min total run time. Twin ball bearing Turbonetics 7668 turbos, twin JGS BOV and wastegates,stainless forward mount headers,FMIC,mandrel bent piping,all tig welded with Vbands. This requires EXTENSIVE mods to install,this is nowhere close to a "bolt on" kit. I would consider race only just FYI ! Look at the pics,ask questions if you like. Asking $7500 for whole turbo kit incl exhaust back to flywheel.

Its not for the faint of heart. The last foot approx of tunnel needs to be flared out all around to clear,the inner supports for the tunnel plate need trimming,brake lines and wiring need to be carefully routed and exhaust will need to be redone to clear.Its documented on here,I know several have done it,I would personally talk to Fran or RPM as they pioneered this setup.
As a side note,I would take a Tr6060 setup in trade plus,need everything though,trans,bellhousing TT and all. NOT looking for a race setup,just a good solid used trans.

Not pissed,just no spark. I walk by the car,sit in it,nothing. Not sure why but its not there. Buddy needed an engine NOW for a project,asked me what I had or could do.Told him the only thing I had was my LSX and threw out a silly # came back the next day with a big stack of 100s and told me to pull it. So that started this end I guess. I must be getting old,my work truck is just fine for me,maybe a reverse midlife crisis,IDK. I am sure I will miss it at some point. Thanks for asking though.

You have great fab and design skills. Watching your build thread was inspiring... I, along with everyone else here, was looking forward to the finished project.
But, I can certainly understand losing the fire.
Best of success with your sale.

Thank you,I wish it were different.You guys have always been very supporting of this project,I should have put it on the track but such is life. Ive traded track time for city park time with my 5yr old,Im good with that.
