GM 6L80e transmission to bop engine

[64 kiwi boni]

Has anyone fitted up a 6L80e behind a Pontiac or any bop motor ???

Kiwi - I think the toughest part is finding someone to come up with the adaptor plate and possible the correct torque convertor/spacing to work with the Pontiac engine.

I know of only know of one company (Zero Gravity) that makes an adaptor kit for SBC and BBC Gen I & II motors for the 6L80E. I have not seen anyone yet mention a BOP adaptor kit. That doesn't mean kits don't exist, it just means I haven't seen them in the catalogs or advertised on the internet.

and if i have not bore you stiff by now, here is why i am looking at doing a 6L80e to bop swap, these new transmissions are way better than a turbo 350/400
