[QUOTE="Redneckbmxer24, post: 16452691, member: 34905"] I’m thinking about dropping a 6R80 in my 2012, and have lots of questions. 1. I found a 2011-2012 6r80, would this be ideal for my car vs a newer one, or does it make a difference? 2. For a car making 800whp or so, would the PBH 1000HP rebuild kit suffice, or are there other parts I should upgrade while it’s apart? It’s going to be primarily a street car but I will beat on it a good bit. 3. What’s the best torque converter or is it preference? I know TCI has always made great stuff and offers one but it looks like the circle D is also very popular. 4. I currently have a DSS 1 piece aluminum DS in the car. Will this work (I thought I read it can’t) and if not does anyone know if DSS can modify it for the correct length? 5. What’s a general ballpark that I can expect to get out of my takeoff parts and what’s the desirability like for them on the used market? It’s got a MGW gen 2, Spec twin disc that’s only got a few thousand miles on it, and then I guess all the factory stuff like console trim, pedal assembly, etc. 6. Will the stock GT trans cooler and lines suffice a FL street car or should I go ahead and do the PBH trans cooler with fan? 7. Will the 6r80 clear Kooks LT’s going in and out? 8. Anything else I should know going into it? Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
