I am not aware of anyone reporting having a 4L80E in an '88.

from my estimation, the C4 takes a transmission the same way, so an 88 would be real close to the same as any year...

Is there anyone around here who has converted from a late model C4 4L60E to a built 4L80E. I would like to get some info on how difficult the switch is and what is involved.

What are the gear ratios of the 4L80E, incl OD?

Never mind. I got off my dead a*s and found the ratios on the net (in about 15-seconds)

Raptor has a conversion kit but I have not heard of anyone using it yet. I'm not sure if it still works with the electronics either. ??

Read and call the phone number $700.00 for the tail shaft,$1000.00 for the computer programmer and 5K for the trans.
Raptor has it all.

Considering the cost of several broken transmissions in a high horsepower car, that could be a bargain.
Anyone done this yet?
