Be ready to modify some parts of your car since these are big & heavy.

Carcraft or Hotrod did a tranny swap with a turbo Buick the article had good information on what needs to be done to our cars.They even ran before and after 1/4 mile tests,the weight was not that big of a factor at all.

I will tell you from experience that the weight is an issue. Anyone that installs one will know.. the 4l80e is almost 100lbs more in weight by itself...given using identical converters and such... My car obviously had more weight on the front wheels for a more nose tipped look after I installed mine. And I do have relatively new front springs on my car. The aftermarket crossmember will be heavier too.

More weight and a higher 1st gear can't make it "better" than a 2004r for performance.. but peace of mind does matter.

I have one in my car.. but don't really recommend it unless you really do have a low 10 sec or faster "street" car.

I agree, except for the last statement. I've run some high 9's with mine and plan to be much quicker this year. I wish my motors would last as long as my 2004R has.

Very true with me also.
