anyone swap in a 4l60e

im sure there are a few guys, anything to watch out for? does anyone sell a swap kit? like with cross member and driveshaft?

im planning on using a 97 harness and a 94/95 pcm, this will be behind a lt1

any help appreciated!! thanks

You will need a way to drive the speedometer. The 4L60E is completely electronic and has not speedo cable provision. You can get a modified tailhousing that has the VSS and speedo cable drive from Jags That Run. Or you can get an electronic speedometer. Or you can use the Cable-X box that uses the electronic signal to run a motor that turns a speedometer cable.

where would i find this cable x box?

or the electric speedo, do you mean like a autometer?

ill check out jags that run, thanks.

ouch jags that run wants 200 usd, maybe ill just make a custom gauge cluster that will add to the asthetics.

The Cable-X box is around $290, the electric speedometer will run around $200, the tailshaft conversion from JTR runs $200-300 total. Keep you eyes open to Ebay for electric speedos, that's your best bet. If you go to www.bowtieoverdrives.com they have custom crossmembers that bolt in. I'm not sure if anyone specifically makes a shortened driveshaft, but I thought one of the Mustang shafts might fit perfectly. Better off getting yours shortened and balanced.

okay thanks ill search e bay, what shoudl i look for electric firebird speedo? yes i found out that a mustang drive shaft does fit, ill have to compare pricing of it vs. having mine shortened and balanced. i will get that cross member from bowties. i wonder what tranny mount to get? thanks for your help.

I haven't gotten to the point of getting working gauges yet with my car. I'm probably going to get the Cable-X box. I figure you can always shut the power off to it to keep the mileage down.
