there is a fine line between frankenstiening a car ala "monster garage" and the mix and match bolt ons. This is what seperates certain engine and tranny combos from the rest. What I mean is we (non-jessy james people) have to work with what FITS !!

If the tranny doesn't bolt to: (refering to only the 6th gen)
a)engines (3SGTE, 7AFE, 5SFE)
b)tranny mounts
c)axle set (right length, right splines+spline lenght)
d)compatible shifter cables

you can forget about it, you will not make it fit without extensive custom work and expensive custom parts. Go back to the drawing board and pick something else.

not nescessarily...for some this is pretty much easily accomplished once the foreground is set for them---the hardest thing honestly would be welding a mounting position(s) into the engine bay...even that can be had for mere bucks also.

once thats done its pretty much dropping basics on installing a tranny but with the addition of an adaptor plate if need be

reply revisited

this is a bellhousing



it cannot be swapped out for annother one, it is part of the transmission casing
an adaptor plate cannot be used as previously discussed

The problem is that when using a bell-housing adapter plate, you run the risk of tne input shaft not seating all the way into the clutch assembly. You'd probably need a custom length input shaft which is going to cost you probably more than the tranny is worth. If you have the money, go for it. But like stated above, for 99.9% of people if it doesn't fit it's not going to be worth the hassle.

and you're still missing a mega critical part, a set of compatible axles


and shifter cables

so.... what you said is just jibber, go back to the drawing board, no offense intended
