It was probably about 35 lbs. The 1/4" wall x 6" square tubing I used to go around the cats was heavy and didn't flex.

Wow, a transbrake would be cool on the 80e. A stall would be necessary...Yeah, it locks up both D and R...then once you release the button--BAM--it all goes to D and you are off! Any more updates? Or are you waiting for the weekend to finish things up?

I work on it as the parts arrive on my doorstep. Today the wiring harness arrives, so tonight I'll most likely be crawled up under it again installing the new NelsonPerformance 80e conversion harness. After that I have to load a new updated PCM program from Allen to handle the shifting logic and off I go into the wild blue yonder. I can't wait to get to drive it and see how my $200 transmission works.

Received the 60e to 80e adapter today. Very nice work. I'll try working on it tomorrow. Had a little accident with a skill saw that tried to take my big toe off my right foot tonight so no workie on the truck for me. Kick-backs can be dangerous! Its a good thing I had a tight hold on the saw or I could have done some serious damage. Got lucky, only a leather shoe and part of a toe nail were damaged. I knew one day I'd get to use that one.

that sux, how.... never mind I think i know how you almost cut your toe off, i think.
Cutting a square hole in a sheet of plywood using the saw, slowly dropping it vertically in with the guard pulled back. I've done that hundreds of times and never had one kick back. I guess it only takes once to mess your world up. BTW, was standing on the sheet to hold it still.

its cool what your doing with the tranny, sorry bout the toe
Well, got the transmission going and driving. I definitely need a stall convertor. First gear is SOOOOOOOO tall in an 80e. My truck doesn't like it at all compared to the 60e with the 3600 stall. I wonder why? Its like comparing a 69 Yenko Camaro to a 73 Vega wagon. Oh well, lots of potential hidden there still.
