Yea I was wondering abou that.I have stock 70's drivetrain. Figured I would have to go with a stand alone set up to the 350 turbo. Maybe i could find a wrecked 3/4 or ton and get a complete 8.1 with tranny and transfer, wiring and ecm, the works. I love you Avatar Hitmanx! Where did you get that?
The 4L60E is like an electric TH350 w/ OD. The 4L80E is like an electronics TH400 w/ OD. From my memory a 700R4 (old non electric 4L60E) is the same length as a midshaft TH350 so that swap may be easier.

I'd look for a 6.0, 4L80E w/ transfercase (electric or manual). It's a pretty HD setup.

Either way I think you will need to modify the tranny crossmember and get a new front driveshaft made.
