i was using a 82 gearbox in a 90. you have to replace the rear half of the tranny with that of the 90.

from what i understand some are compatable some aren't. i don't know the list.

uhh...I believe so, if I'm correct all rotaries have the same bolt patterns, so the bell housings bolt up to each other no? Just a question of the driveshaft....
