4l80e ground clearance shallow trans pan

[joshtownsend]

Does anybody know 100% what pan is used to gain more ground clearance on a 4l80e trans mission? I'm hearing maybe a Pontiac G8 or maybe a Cadillac pan? I need about an inch or maybe a little more but anything will help.. I'm probably going to cut down my own pan if nothing conclusive is known.. A part number would be great as well..

I realize that this isn't a problem most of the time but my car is on air bags and sit on the frame when lower, so i don't want it to lay on the trans pan. Thanks

I say cut your stock pan down. I hope your running a big trans cooler to keep fluid leves inside good and cool.

G8? You mean a 6L80E?

[joshtownsend]

yes, isnt the bolt pattern the same as a 4l80?

Nope they're different.
