Will this bolt up???

[LuminaRacer05]

Will the 4L60E transmisson from the 3.4 94 camaro hook up with the 1997 LS1 from a corvette?

[balls_to_the_wall]

Even if it will bolt up, you take a tranny that was taking what....200hp, and put it up against (guessing) 385hp beast?.....i don't think it would hold. But don't take my word, I am just guessing here, the only trannys im somewhat familiar with are T400's, 350s, and the 700R4

[chevy_chic20041]

i agree, i don't think it will work

[LS1MAN]

i might be wrong, but it seems like the third gen v6's had the same trannies as the v8's, but don't take my word for it

Nope won't work. The 4l60e have one piece tranny bellhousing's and the LS1 has completely different bolt pattern.

[LuminaRacer05]

so what all will bolt up to a 97 corvette LS1

[FormulaLT1]

www.car-parts.com but any LS1 4l60e will work from what I know.

the 4L60E that was in the sixer is the same tranny that fits in the z28/ss cars. no difference, you can swap em out. an the 4L60E does infact have a removable housing, as i remember it. the 700R4 is the tranny with the fixed bellhousing...

The guts are the same but the housing itself is a one piece bellhousing.

4L60E


4L60E exploded


700R4

Point out the removable bellhousing to me in this ad or any of the other 200+ 4l60e tranny's for sale on ebay. It could be very possible that a aftermarket company makes a 4l60e with a removable bellhousing but they do not come this way in any camaro.

Edit- I think your thinking about the units used with some Vortec trucks(and that was a extention housing) but these units were never used on any F-body's and are not interchangable with 4l60-e's used in cars.

it would seem that we have somewhat of a mystery on our hands.

*this is out of a 94 camaro


*this is out of a 96 camaro.

what i found is that in 96 they redid the 4L60E and gave it a removable bellhousing (one site called it a 4L65E). ie from 93-95 its was one piece case essentially the same as 700R4, but from 96 on there was a removable bellhousing type. i also found versions of the 4L80E as a one piece case, so ill look into it more but thats all i got right now...

The ad I sent you is from a 2001(hence after 96). I have seen tons of 4l60e's and looked threw many ads too and I am telling you that you will not find a 2 piece bellhousing in any f-body unless someone modified there car with a aftermarket one. They just don't have them.

I am 99% positive this is what your thinking about but like it says used on 2 wheel drive trucks and is not a bellhousing but a extention. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW
