transmission swap
 
Hey guys as you have recently read in some of my threads that my tranny is gone. I'm wanting to put in a 2nd gen transmission. NOw all I want to know is what do I have to modify to the second gen tranny to fit to my 13B 4-port? I know search but I don't have the time right now and just decided to do this. ANY INFORMATION IS GREATLY APPRECIATED. Thanks guys and gals.

I don't think any mods are needed.

Is your 4 port made from a six port or is it an oem 4 port block........ would that even make a diferance?

god only knows lol I bught it like that. I think the engine is a 77. If I'm correct then that would make it a stock 4portblock I would believe

Yup, I have trouble keeping all these little swap factoids
in order.
I think its a direct swap, but try a search there's gotta be some info in the archives on this one.

The n/a 2nd gen. box will bolt straight in if you use the 1st gen. tail and shifter housing. It has to be n/a though... turbo boxes need a lot more work. Search next time. :D

yea yea NA I'm not too excited about this whole thing, but I'd rather have th SE trannny buuuttt no one is selling one. so I'm stuck with the next best thing. OK what is the tail and shifter housings anyways, I'm gonna have fun doing this one.
