Actually in all the humvees Iv worked on my deployment they all had a 4l60e. So i don't know where you'd find a 3l80e.

They are found in full size GM van early to mid 90`s I beleive.Not a good idea to put it behind the 4.3.This trans was built for heavy duty work and V8 power

Im 95% sure thats what they were thou they may have been 4l80e s but im almost positive they were 4l60e s.That's what I've seen in all the ones over seas thou most were old trucks that didn't leave the fob. Ill double check when I'm at AT in a couple weeks.

Didn't the H1 have the 6.5 in it? There is no way a 60E is going to hold that kind of torque.
