You might get better luck in the 3rd gen tech or the drive train forum. But, if its anything like putting a turbo 350 in a lt1, I know the housing has to be machined down and you have to buy an adapter to mate the block and tranny. Plus your driveshaft has to be shortened.

Thumbs up thanks

Thanks for the advice, that sounds like alot of work. i think i will just stick with the 700r4 for now, i won't be pushing no more than a lil over 400hp when i get some work done. thanks again.

I'll move this over to the Drivetrain forum in case there are other ideas
