The TRUCK C6 transmission from behind a 351M/400/460 is Bullet-proof.
Don't settle for anything less.
Truck tranny's are differnt from Car tranny's.

I concur about rebuilding.

The NSS also doubles as a Back up light switch .

I'm not sure about post 79 C6's and the NSS location.

But Best bang for the buck is getting yours rebuild.

IMO, Nothing worse than investing all that money and time and have a $75 tranny go belly up in 2 days.
