im considering swapping in this billy bad ass 80e to my 2wd '05 escalade i built for a previous project of mine that ended up getting sold before completion.

is there a parts list for the swap?
shift cable?
trans crossmember?
driveshaft measurements?
jumper harness?
trans line adapters?

From what I've READ
you will need a transmission
torque converter(there is an issue with the converter or flywheel spacing, either a new flywheel or bushing/spacer)
modified/custom transmission cross member, 4l80 is longer
custom drive shaft
Unknown about translines, i suspect some can be made pretty readily from the stock ones
I think shift cable is the same as the 4l60
Electrical plug must be modified
2nd VSS must be wired in to ECM
ECM tune

experts who have successfully done the swap, should complete my reply.
