Im dissappointed that you wont be using the 6L90. I understand that you want to avoid tunnel surgery but there is a shallow option for the trans pan. I had a G8 GT 6L80 pan modified to work with the 6L90. It increased my ground clearance by 1.5". I am amazed that the 6 speed autos have not become more poopular. I am very glad that i went through the trouble to do the trans tunnel surgery and get through other issues when i switched from a 4L60 to the 6L90 and i still havent tuned the car to take advantage of the manual and sport modes.
