sm465

So I'm still having a hard time finding a T-176 and after reading a little on the Novak Adapter website, i read up on the sm465. It seems as those people who have a T-4 /T-5 commonly make this swap. There is one i found on craigslist which is like a 2 hour drive away.

My question is what is it i need exactly to do this swap, and when identifying this tranny what exactly should i be looking for. I think i read that some even came with 2wd. I read i could also use the same bell housing that i have for my T-5 . Anything or changes i need to make??
THanks for the help in advance!

I would call Novak and ask them the exact questions.........what you need to look for on the tranny and what adaptors if any you need to complete your project...........Nice group of knowledgeable guys there.

You'll need to modify your bellhousing
You'll also need an adapter for your TCase
