B&M Automatic Transmissions

Shop B&M automatic transmissions for street performance, street/strip vehicles, muscle cars, engine swaps, restoration projects, and custom drivetrain builds. Elite Crate Motors offers B&M performance transmission options for buyers looking for proven automatic transmission platforms with configurations suited to different vehicle applications and power requirements.

About B&M Automatic Transmissions

B&M automatic transmissions are performance-oriented transmissions developed for enthusiasts and builders who need more than a basic stock replacement. B&M Racing & Performance Products has a long history in the performance transmission market, with products covering complete transmissions, automatic shifters, torque converters, flexplates, transmission coolers, pans, and internal components.

B&M complete automatic transmissions have been offered across recognized transmission platforms including 4L60E, 4L80E, TH400, and other performance-oriented configurations.

These transmission families support different generations of vehicles and drivetrain combinations. Traditional hydraulic automatic transmissions can suit classic muscle cars, hot rods, and restoration builds, while electronically controlled transmissions such as the 4L60E and 4L80E can support compatible later-model vehicles and engine-swap applications.

Individual B&M transmissions can differ substantially in power capacity, gear ratios, control systems, internal components, and intended use. Buyers should therefore select a transmission according to the complete vehicle and drivetrain combination.

Choosing the Right B&M Transmission

When selecting a B&M automatic transmission, begin by identifying the transmission family required for the vehicle or build.

Important factors include vehicle application, engine type, horsepower, torque output, transmission model, gear count, bellhousing compatibility, input and output configuration, drivetrain layout, and intended use.

Electronic control is particularly important when considering later automatic transmissions. Some B&M electronic transmissions may require a compatible transmission controller when installed in transplant or custom applications.

Power output should also be considered carefully. Modified engines can produce substantially more horsepower and torque than the vehicle’s original drivetrain was designed to handle. The transmission should therefore be selected according to its stated specifications and the expected engine output.

Buyers should also consider torque converter requirements. Converter selection can depend on engine characteristics, vehicle weight, rear gearing, tire size, intended driving conditions, and transmission configuration.

Always compare the individual B&M part number and transmission specifications with the vehicle before ordering.

Available Options

Our B&M automatic transmission category may include several configurations for performance and replacement applications.

Depending on current inventory, buyers may find:

• B&M 4L60E automatic transmissions
• B&M 4L80E automatic transmissions
• B&M TH400 transmission configurations
• Street/Strip automatic transmissions
• Performance automatic transmissions
• Electronically controlled transmission options
• Hydraulic automatic transmission configurations
• Transmissions for compatible GM applications
• Rear-wheel-drive transmission configurations
• Options for engine swaps and custom builds

Individual products can vary in gear ratios, horsepower and torque ratings, valve-body configuration, electronic controls, output specifications, and included components.

Some transmissions may be supplied without a torque converter, controller, cooler, dipstick, or other installation components. Buyers should review the individual product listing carefully to determine exactly what is included.

Supported Models and Applications

B&M automatic transmissions are particularly relevant to performance vehicles, GM drivetrain applications, muscle cars, hot rods, engine swaps, and custom builds.

Depending on the transmission model, applications can include Chevrolet and GM vehicles, classic muscle cars, performance street cars, modified trucks, LS-powered builds, restoration projects, and street/strip vehicles.

The 4L60E, for example, is a four-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission used across numerous GM applications. B&M performance versions can be appropriate for compatible vehicles and certain engine-swap combinations when the required controls and drivetrain specifications are addressed.

The heavier-duty 4L80E platform is another important B&M performance transmission option for compatible high-output applications.

Exact compatibility depends on the individual transmission. Engine configuration, model year, drivetrain, bellhousing, electronics, output shaft, driveshaft, crossmember, shifter, torque converter, and other components can affect fitment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does B&M make complete automatic transmissions?

Yes. B&M Racing & Performance Products offers complete automatic transmission configurations in addition to its well-known shifters, torque converters, transmission coolers, pans, and internal components. Complete B&M transmission offerings include performance configurations based on established automatic transmission platforms such as the 4L60E and 4L80E.

What B&M automatic transmissions are available?

B&M has offered performance transmissions based on platforms including 4L60E, 4L80E, and TH400 configurations, among others. Available products at Elite Crate Motors depend on current inventory. Buyers should use the individual B&M part number and specifications to identify the exact transmission configuration.

Are B&M transmissions suitable for street driving?

Certain B&M automatic transmissions are specifically configured for street or Street/Strip applications. Suitability depends on the individual transmission, vehicle configuration, engine output, controls, converter selection, and intended use. Buyers should compare the product specifications with their complete drivetrain before purchasing.

Do B&M electronic transmissions require a controller?

Some electronically controlled B&M transmissions may require a compatible transmission controller, particularly in engine-swap or transplant applications where the original vehicle electronics cannot operate the transmission. Controller requirements vary by transmission and application, so the individual product specifications should be checked before ordering.

How do I choose the correct B&M replacement transmission?

Identify the transmission model, vehicle year, make and model, engine, drivetrain, power output, and intended use. Then compare the B&M part number, gear ratios, electronic or hydraulic controls, input and output specifications, torque converter requirements, and vehicle compatibility before selecting a transmission.
