Manufactured from USA-produced aerospace-grade billet aluminum in Wichita, Kansas, the kit includes two O-rings and a bare-aluminum finish for straightforward installation on compatible GM transmissions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill these adapters fit my 4L80E transmission and which ports do they service?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese adapters are specifically machined for transmissions using the GM 4L80E family and match the standard transmission case cooler thread (O.D. .516\", 1\/4\" NPSM equivalent in O.D.).

Use a torque wrench or hand tools to snug fittings without over-tightening; the aluminum fittings seat against O-rings rather than metal-metal sealing to prevent damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTools: suitable wrench or socket, torque wrench recommended, thread-safe lubricant if desired.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eParts: includes one front and one rear fitting plus two O-rings; additional AN hose ends required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTip: confirm port orientation and routing before final tightening to avoid interference.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDo not cross-thread; start fittings by hand and align before torqueing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy choose billet aluminum adapters and what performance or durability benefits do they offer?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBillet aluminum offers precision machining, corrosion resistance, and a strong yet lightweight solution for fluid connections compared with cast or stamped alternatives.

The ICT Billet 4L80E -6AN adapter kit is aimed at vehicle owners, builders, and fabricators upgrading or repairing automatic transmission cooling systems on GM 4L80E-equipped vehicles. It suits enthusiasts fitting aftermarket coolers, custom hose lines, or performance cooling packages who need reliable, USA-made fittings that adapt the factory cooler ports to standard -6AN plumbing. Mechanics and DIYers will appreciate the included O-rings and the separate front\/rear lengths for correct fitment, while vehicle restorers and hot-rodders will value the precise machining and domestic production pedigree.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Are these fittings compatible with all 4L80E transmissions?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: They’re made for standard GM 4L80E cooler ports using the .516\" case thread and fit most OEM 4L80E units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Do the fittings come with O-rings and AN hoses?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: The kit includes two O-rings and both fittings; AN hoses and hose ends are not included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"ICT Billet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55165816537431,"sku":"B01N16EZSL","price":35.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1050\/1524\/7191\/files\/ict-billet-4l80e-front-and-rear-fittings.jpg?v=1790358149","url":"https:\/\/britishgarage.co.uk\/products\/ict-billet-4l80e-transmission-adapter-kit-6an-front-rear-fittings-billet-aluminum","provider":"British Garage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
