All I'd have to pull is the rad and fans and maybe the front bumper, but either way it would be super easy. The car is pretty simple so it's nice to work on.

Quick question, my tune isn't calibrated for gear ratio and tire size and the car/tranny seems to start from a dead stop in 2nd???? It pulls it fine cause the car's so light but if i start to roll barely, basically let off the gas and drop it into 1st you can clearly feel it downshift and hear the difference. Could it starting in 2nd be cause my tune is off? That's what I would assume but I'm just looking for a second opinion I guess haha.
If you put the shift selector in 2nd then it will start out in 2nd gear. Thats just how they have them programmed.
No no, I'm talking during everyday driving in overdrive it seems to start out in 2nd.
How many times does it shift? Electrical default is 3rd. Make sure you have 12V to the trans.
12v as in from the torque converter/brake switch????
The eletric shifted 60's have a key on hot wire, pink if memory serves. It supplies power to all the solenoids. The solenoids are grounded to turn them on. With no power, the trans is hydraulically in 3rd, reverse, or P/N.
Yup, that's all hooked up.
Nice work! I like the swap! I bought my engine from Bow Auto Salvage a year ago for my swap.They are really nice and have the best prices I have seen. Even Delivered my engine for free. It has held up great so far even with the turbo on it.
They delivered yours!? Oh, Manchester, you're closer than I was haha.
But yeah, definitely great people and it was worth the trip. They've got a good shop/setup over there.
T56 being picked up Saturday so no more not shifting properly BS!!!!!!! Depending on my recovery T56 swap might be completed in the next month, but snow is on it's way and this car won't see one of our crappy salted roads when the snow hit's so I might not get to drive it with the T56 until next year :(.
But oh well, some what of an update I guess haha.
Pics will be up next Sunday hopefully.
Oh, and my 2006 2wd 4L60E will be for sale soon as well.
Hey it looks like you ditched the truck serp set up. I've got a 240sx that I'm throwing a 5.3l in as well. I'm trying to save money and run the truck alternator but the thing is just so damn tall. Good looks on the build so far, I'm definitally jealous of the shop you have at your disposal.
