Book Description
Learn how to rebuild and modify the GM 4L80E transmission! As the successor to the venerable and popular Turbo Hydra-matic 400 (TH400), the 4L80E was the next flag bearer in GM’s line of automatic transmissions.

Automatic transmissions are often seen as mysterious and overly complicated, but much of the guesswork has been simplified to its basic elements in this easy-to-follow guide. This book covers the process of identifying the best versions, tearing down the 4L80E, rebuilding, reassembly, and troubleshooting. Upgrades that are available for the 4L80E, which is a popular topic among performance fans and transmission swappers, are also included. This detailed, step-by-step instructional manual is authored by racer and builder Eric McClellan. Meticulous step-by-step photos of the rebuild process are featured along with torque specs and unique identification of all major and most minor components.

Book Description
The Muncie 4-speeds, M20, M21, and M22 are some of the most popular manual transmissions ever made and continue to be incredibly popular. The Muncie was the top high-performance manual transmission GM offered in its muscle cars of the 60s and early 70s. It was installed in the Camaro, Chevelle, Buick GS, Pontiac GTO, Olds Cutlass, and many other classic cars. Many owners want to retain the original transmission in their classic cars to maintain its value. Transmission expert and veteran author Paul Cangialosi has created an indispensible reference to Muncie 4-speeds that guides you through each crucial stage of the rebuild process. Comprehensive ID information is provided, so you can positively identify the cases, shafts, and related parts. It discusses available models, parts options, and gearbox cases. Most important, it shows how to completely disassemble the gearbox, identify wear and damage, select the best parts, and complete the rebuild. It also explains how to choose the ideal gear ratio for a particular application. Various high-performance and racing setups are also shown, including essential modifications, gun drilling the shafts, cutting down the gears to remove weight, and achieving race-specific clearances. Muncie 4-speeds need rebuilding after many miles of service and extreme use. In addition, when a muscle car owner builds a high-performance engine that far exceeds stock horsepower, a stronger high-performance transmission must be built to accommodate this torque and horsepower increase. No other book goes into this much detail on the identification of the Muncie 4-speed, available parts, selection of gear ratios, and the rebuild process.

Book Description
(GM) Domestic Automotive Transmission Troubleshooter and Reference A reference and pictorial guide for automotive transmissions (Including General Motors Vehicles) By MANDY CONCEPCION The beginnings of this book (GM) came about after the development of the "Transmission Troubleshooter" software package, which eventually became part of the "TransDoctor" PC based diagnostic equipment. Both of these related products, although meant for the professional side of the industry, left behind a huge arsenal of data that matched perfectly with the needs of the average consumer, DIY and mechanic aficionado. We assumed that his information, so far as the general public was concerned, did not necessitated to be part of a broad software package and therefore could be offered at a lower cost to the public. This book covers automotive Transmission diagnostics and electronic repair for the GM side of domestic vehicles. The information was amassed during years of field work and research in the automotive industry. For this reason, the information is presented in a direct, hands on approach and skips the basic operation of automotive transmissions. If you're trying to discern the basics of automotive automatic transmissions, then there are other works that could help you do that. This book is meant to be used during real-life repair situations and it exposes you to exactly what you need to know to solve or get an in-depth knowledge of a specific problem. Various concepts are covered such as Transmission DTCs or trouble codes, Transmission ID, shift solenoid locations, component locations, electrical and wiring diagrams and finally measurement values for voltage and resistance. We hope you enjoy reading this work to gain knowledge and solve specific problems. So, without further ado, enjoy...
