Transmission question

mmmmm.....well....they can all fit on the engine, but there are subtle
differences.
Make sure the clutch/PP match....that's #1. They ARE different.
If you're changing transmission types, make sure your cv inner flanges are
going to be the same or you'll need to swap them as well. I haven't had any
problems running with the 'smaller' equipment. One of these days, I might
change out the flange so I can get the 'big' cv shafts back on there.

I believe the only difference is the pressure plate, it is based with a
heavier load to compensate for the additional torque and hp. Other than that
everything else is Identical.

I could be wrong.
