This is a great looking build and should be super fun!!
That's great to hear. With so many things coming together for the first time on this car, I'm hoping we don't get too many headaches.

Well it's not much to look at right now lol but if you want to stop by one day in the afternoon when Mr. Kyle is available I could probably meet you. Car is at his shop.

Good progress on the 4L80 install.











Should be test fitting the trans this week to make sure it clears or if more has to be "massaged"

Seperate controller. infinity doesn't support auto transmission control.

Well, the trans went up but didn't fit with my QuickTime Manual bellhousing. Everything was too far back about 5/8". We thought it would work but that didn't pan out. RPM recommends the auto bell, but thought the manual might work. FYI for all that try after us, it doesn't work lol. I ordered an auto QuickTime bell (which happened to be .600 shorter,duh) and the rest is history. Kyle had to cut a bit more out of the tunnel but we had a successful test fit today.

My very handy "DOOD Saver" cart.

wow, didn't realize structural "modifications" to the vette required were quite that extensive for the auto swap
