    What a shame.

    I have no idea what it takes to put a Turbo 400 behind a LS1 style motor. Do they have the same bolt pattern as an old SBC?

    Since your 4L80 has a broken case I'll probably pass.

    What year 6.0 did you get? Since it has iron heads it must also have the long rear crank snout. That means a Turbo 400 should bolt up no problem.
