Pretty much this.
If the mt82 wasn't such a piece of shit compared to the 6R80, I might have gone with it.
Just the fact is that the 6R80 is so much better than the mt82 I couldn't see buying a car knowing it had a piece if shit trans.
No new shifter, bushings, hoses, clutch, etc.... You shouldn't have to dump thousands into a trans to make it work or hold power.
