Change from a c6 to E4OD

Hey all, my C6 gave up, I have a good E4OD, Just wondering how much trouble it is to hook up.... is the E4OD shifted by the comp? How much trouble is it to make it work?

E40D is computer controlled.

There have been a number of discussions on this before if you haven't tried running a search...I'll see if I can find one and reply.

I'm looking to do the opposite from you, E40D to a C6. I'm not sure what all you will need besides a new computer for an E40D vehicle or one of those tranny controllers or something.

There are ecu/comtrol box you can get to run e4od separate from engine.

But to do a stock install there is wiring ,Ecu /pcm for your engine sized and with e4od , driveshafts (maybe)ETC .

Good luck .

I would probably be easier to go with an AOD if you can find one cheap. Its not computer controlled.

The AOD isn't computer controlled? I was under the impression it was. If it's not, then that's another option for me on my carb swap.

nah the AODE is electronically controlled but the AOD isnt. Just be sure you get something rigged up for the TV(kickdown) cable, because AOD's are very sensitive about TV adjustment. If its very far out, it will burn up the tranny pretty quick.
