4L80E in a Challenger - bellhousings?

[ntstlgl1970]

might check the turbomustangs website forum, they have a mopar section and there has been at least one thread about using the 4L80 or 6L80 behind a mopar.

10-4.  Thanks for the heads up.  I already knew the bolt patterns were different between the 400 and 4L80, I just didn't know if the 400 ultrabell would be able to be machined to fit.  I know I'd have to do some machine work to the front pump to get the bell to sit flat, but beyond that (diameters and such) I'm at a loss.  I had though about just ordering one and sizing everything up - if It doesn't work, send it back and try again.  However, now that Quick Time reports that they are going to make one, I might just hold out for that.  I'm not on a "frantic" schedule to get my car together, lol - I've been working on the car for over 3 years now just to get to this point.

Just got a notification from QuickTime that their bellhousings should be available to ship in about 4-5 weeks.  Just thought I would update this for us poor souls out there who are trying to run this combo.   

EDIT:  I just did a Google search to see if thread popped up - no luck on that one.   Any ideas on how to make this come up as one of the things listed in a google search.  Sure would be nice if others could find this.

Quick update. 

There was some confusion as to what transmission was similar to what.  Needless to say, there now exists a BBM to 4l60 SFI bellhousing for the Mopar clan available from quicktime. 

After I cleared up some confusion on the phone with Ross, he said that he will custom make a bell housing for my application - all he needs is the bell housing depth and the front pump for about a week.  I think I can do without my front pump for a week.   

He was asking about what the market was for these, and I was telling him that I knew of a couple of people that wanted one - but I figured it wouldn't be too many.  However, if you are interested in something like this, please send an e-mail to Ross at quicktime and let him know.

Bringing back a thread from the dead.  Bell housings are up for sale now. 

Part number RM9074

You'll have to buy a 130 tooth flexplate to make it work, but it's cheap, and every bit of it is SFI certed.  I've had mine for at least 6 months now.

How did this work out for you? Did you get it up and running? Does a 4L80 fit in a stock E-Body tranny tunnel or do you have to modify the floor?
Thanks Brad
