[QUOTE=Dan Fahey;544975]Here is some swap Information from a 4L60E to 4L65E posting

2) the manual shaft (aka the shift lever) that protrudes out of the side of the trans and gets hooked to the shift linkage must be swapped as the Holden/truck style shift lever is too long and hits the tranny tunnel. it's pretty simple, it's just a matter of popping the pan off and working the lever out from under the gear selector (the ratchet thing that moves as you select different gears.), then putting the stock 4L60E lever in it's place. i let a tranny guy do this step just for the sake of him knowing exactly how to do it and it took about 10 minutes.

If you do this yourself, take special care not to cut the seal while putting the shaft back in the case.There is a sharp edge on the shaft. Deburr as needed.
