No my old 4l60e didnt have the NSS. Even if I remove it, it doesnt look like it will want to fit thoughQuote:

Shifts pretty good too, go in R N and OD perfect, D 2 and 1 are a little tight but dont use them anyway. if any one needs pics, I will have them posted soon. Up next on the list, Tranny Lines and Gas pedal.
Good to hear you got it to fit.:woot: Mines a lil stiff in d1 and d2 also.Quote:

For the tranny: I would like to convert to the stainless braided lines just because they are so easy to manuver around ( NO I do not want to use black rubber hydraulic hose lol). I was looking on summit and found these http://www.summitracing.com/parts/RUS-640520/ but I am not sure if they will fit and what else to use to connect those to the braided lines.
So I would need the following: 2 fittings to screw into the trans case, 2 fittings to connect the hose to the trans case fittings, 2 sections of hose, 1fitting to screw into my radiator, and 1 fitting to connect the hose to my radiator fitting. ( I am using a trans cooler so there is only 1 line going through the trans)
i want to do the same thing. i have rubber hose hooked to a kinked tranny line right now. looks horrible! the previous own had 2 tranny coolers which is cool but the way he hooked it up is horrible.. those fittings are for the trans?
Hopefully someone can help us both out. Ya the link I have above looks like those will work for the tranny but I really dont have a clue. Back in the day when I did the braided fuel lines for my old tbi, it was easy as 1 2 3. Now I dont have a clue especially for the fittings for the fuel rail GM quick dissconnect stuff.Quote:

Still trying to figure out what fittings to use for connecting stainless braided lines from my tranny (4l80e) to my radiator and trans cooler. Im pretty sure i know what fittings to use that screw into the actual tranny case, but am not 100% sure what fittings to use for attaching the hose to the radiator, and the cooler. On another note, gettings ready to order the S&P oil pressure and coolant temp adapters. Is there anywhere else to order them? I looked on summit and couldnt find anything similar
Sorry I can't help with the line fittings. But I bought an adapter of ebay the goes on the side of the oil pan for the oil pressure for like $10 and tapped the waterpump for the temp sensor. You could just get the thre wire sensor for the ls1 fbodys for the temp sensor.
Here is a few pic of my tranny lines done in AN^ Stainless Steel braided lines with a remote filter and cooler.I can looks up the fittings I used on the tranny (think they are 3/8 to AN6 but not 100% sure) and the ones at the radiator( i think where fuel/carb fitting to AN6

Ya my rubber hose running into my trans cooler is 3/8. I did get all my fittings today from summit, what I ended up doing was getting a -6 AN to 3/8 hose barb and ill just connect the rubber lines to my braided lines. Im still unsure of the right fittings that screw into the actual 4l80e case though. The part number from summit is #640520.....http://www.summitracing.com/parts/RUS-640520/ but they just dont look right. they seem to small. I don't know maybe im wrong, once i get a chance to get out to the barn ill try putting them in. Is your tranny 4l80e? And if you can, that would be great if you could look up the fittings you used in your case.
Got some things done today: Had to redo the fuel system (again) since my LSX system was returnless. I got the corvette filter/ reg and my stainless braided lines to fit. Its connected to the intake and ready to go. Also plumbed my tranny lines using -6 stainless braided hose. Connected to the tranny, still need to figure out what route im going to go with hooking it up to my rad. and cooler. Drilled my water pump also for the steam vent and got rid of all that hose thats unnecessary. Used a 11/32 drill bit then tapped it. I bought a 1/8 to 3/16 hose barb off summit and got that in.
Still need to :
Figure out belt alignment issue
Find right size belt
connect gas pedal module
Also bought my Oil pressure and coolant temp sensor adapters from speedwaymotors.com------>>>>> WAY cheaper than S&P...plus S&Ps site is horrible for shopping/trying to find something you need. Its a mess!
START WIRING-----YIKES
following...any more progress?
Did find 2 pics of the harnesses we were going to attempt to mate together. Once we sat down and looked at that, we decided to call Nelson's up tomorrow to see what pricing is going to be lol. So if anyone is looking for a harness forsale, my LS harness out of a 05 6.0 MIGHT be for sale if Nelsons doesn't need it to rework things.
i believe nelson charges 450 to rework your harness and 650 for a new one. or something like that.Quote:

I plan on getting a DBC ecm and 96-98 vortec throttle cable to run with a LS1 DBC throttle body.
Anyone see problems that I will run into?
having no experience yet, thats the general impression i got from reading as the simplest route.Quote:

Ill get some pics of my setup for ya soon. I got it setup for WOT once it hits the carpet and I have it setup with 2 bolts one of the very top and i drilled the bottom one in the firewall and put a nut on the other sideQuote:

MSD Starter- Pricey....but totally worth the looks through the fenderwell :-P
Braided fuel line
Modded electronic gas pedal ( may be up forsale due to going to DBC)
I modded the heck out of this pedal...took me 3 times to get it right but its basically perfect now. When you are WOT it bottoms out on the carpet. In the pics, when my hand is on the pedal it means im pressing it down so you can see the clearance.
Steam vent tube- evacuates the air bubbles in the cyl. head. Drill water pump with 11/32 then use a 1/8 pipe tap. buy a 1/8 pipe tap to 3/16 hose barb fitting off summit.
looking good. i want to do the same thing with my trans cooler lines because mine are trashed. do the russell fitings screw right into the case? the lines i have now arent screwed in. they are connected by some plastic clip or something.
Yup I had the same plastic clip lines too...I ripped em out. This is what you need for 4l80e. The longer fitting goes in the rear. http://www.sweetperformance.com/prod...&productId=496Quote:

Mine just screwed right into the case. I ordered different ones from summit, not the ones in the link above. But once I removed the original ones I found out that the rear line fitting has a 3" long tube thats inside of the case ( and the ones i ordered didn't have that 3" extension). I think thats just for return purposes and my new fitting didnt have that....we will see if it leaks or not :-pQuote:

I think I might have my old fittings from the trannys i can try to compare them when i get home from work tonight. I went with -6Quote:

The bad news: Its really close to not fitting lol. Luckily my truck is lifted and I think thats why it fits, but im not sure how much I should risk it. And I am def not having a new one made or mine shortened so its just going to stay in there now and Ill make sure I dont put too much of a heavy load in the back to make it squat. Looks like I have about a half inch to an inch of play before it bottoms out in the tcase
Heres some pics of the fabbed up front driveshaft I did. Since it didnt fit, I took some old sleeves (4) I had off my lift kit, cut them down to length, and welded them on the outside 4 bolt holes. Then I had a peice of 3" exhaust, but I found a 3" pipe that was heavier in strength so I used that. I basically cut them so they were 1 1/2". Worked out pretty good. It might be out of balance a little but I dont drive the truck with the front driveshaft in most of the time anyway. It was pretty simple doing this and saved me a good 200 from having it lengthened at a shop. Now I just need to figure out what I am going to do for the rear shaft...
Nelson just confirmed that they sent out my harness and ecm! Ive been slowly modifying my old harness to tie into the new one, will have some pics by the weekend
I need some help with my wiring. I ordered a standalone engine/trans harness from nelson performance and I am trying to figure how/where i tie in my old 4wd harness. When I was ordering from them i expected the harness to come with all the 4x4 stuff but it doesnt because they said that the 4x4 harness isnt actually tied into the engine/trans harness and that the 4x4 harness was considered more "standalone". What I need to know is where it gets its signal from for power.
Will the tps swap over to the dbc from the dbw? Or will you have to get new sensors as well?Quote:

One last thing is how do i get my reverse lights to work? Any diagrams for that as well?
The fuel pump relay? Kind of round in shape with a grey wire coming out of it? Backup light should be in the steering column IIRC.
No its not the fuel pump relay thats more towards the passenger side. Its a relay right between the winshield wiper box (i think) and the brake master cylQuote:

Maybe Nathan will see and and have an idea of what it is.
