Default Engine oil in automatic transmission

Help!

I just rebuilt the 6.0 Lq4 engine in my 2000 Silverado 2500 with the 4L80-E 4x4 automatic transmission and after the first drive the engine is low on oil and the transmission is over full of engine oil.


So does anyone have a diagram of how the engine oil cooler lines and transmission cooler lines attach to the radiator? I think mine are backwards

On my 2006 the trans lines hook into the passenger side rad tank and trans cooler in front of the condenser.

The oil cooler lines run from above the oil filter on the ldriver side of the engine to the driver side rad tank.

Does your truck have a power steering oil cooler? Where do those connect? I really need a diagram

the p/s cooler goes from the steering box, around the drivers side of the rad(not connected to the rad tank), does its loop in front of the condenser and back around the drivers side of the rad tank to the p/s reservoir.


p/s and oil cooler left side, trans right side
post some pics and I tell you if they are correct.
