I think the biggest confusion is GM when it comes to their labeling. For whatever reason they refer to the 700R4 as a 4L60 which they say is a non electronic form of the 4L60E. To me there is a 700R4 and a 4L60E and thats it, there is no such thing as a 4L60. That is just stupid and only creates confusion.

As for the 4L80 my guess is aftermarket companys selling parts for it and have no idea what its even called. I've never heard of a 4L80, only the turbo 400 and then the 4L80E. Why people have to start confusion I'll never know.
