Think it was Car Craft that did a 'Junkyard Builder' series and installed a 4L80E, got the trans for next to nothing, was only the peripherals they mentioned was an 'associated cost'. Interesting read, can Google it.

If you're at a point and need to replace or rebuild a trans, that makes the choice much easier.

I understand your love for that 4L80E but saying it's 'a touch more" to go from a $1500.00 TH350 to a 4L80E is a stretch.
