I'm looking at doing this conversion - Are there any extra steps involved/ any extra problems that I may face if using the later electronic trans (4L60E out of a VT) as opposed to the earlier 4L60? Reason I ask is because I can get a 5L and Auto out of a VT for a good price.
Cheers
Sam

I cut mine just before they started to bend up into the engine bay. I also used a double flaring tool to flare the ends to prevent the hoses slipping off.
From memory I went up the tunnel side of the shaft with efi hose

My box is a 4L60E and I needed the following mods for it to fit:
modified tailshaft (I tried the combos suggested here and the length was incorrect)
custom crossmember
digital to analog speedo drive converter
All the other wiring should just plug in if you are using factory loom and ECU
My engine is from a VS Maloo
