The GM 4L80E is a reliable transmission that features four gears that has a longitudinal orientation and electronic control. The outer casing is cast aluminum, and it is considered a hydraulic transmission. The transmission is slightly more heavy-duty than the 4L60E, except the bell housing is part of the unit.
