We've worked with at least 6 people on 6L80 swaps. A few are already running driving cars. With that said, you should approach the swap as unchartered territory--mostly from a calibration standpoint. But HPTuners has made great progress on calibration tweaking. Te big question is: How much of that can be applied to pro-touring type swaps as opposed to OE 6L's such as C6 vettes, G8's, etc. The answer is coming.
As for this particular application--LS7 with GM ECU and 4L, you will need the following to have it all (cruise control and paddle shift):
-GM ECU with trans type parameter set to M6 (not A4)
-M6 harness
-Compushift with standalone transmission harness
-Shrifter® Paddle Shifter
-Aftermarket standalone cruise control such as Rostra aftermarket unit.
And I strongly recommend one of our MuscleDrive converters to take advantage of the LS7.
