    Its all good

    looks like you got alot of it figured out. you need a turbo bell housing to mate the 22re to a R150F. or find a R151 which came out of a turbo truck. but that is 23 spline output for the t-case, so make sure you get the t-case.

    the wiring is going to be different. so make sure you have a harness and ECU from a 22re truck. motor mounts are different. basically everything is different. but you will have all upgraded components, such as the radiator and brakes.

    and since we are friends again. i have a W56 and R1FA out of a '89 truck you can have for $100. only problem is its forward shift. but i dont think it matter for you, given your situation. but your going to have to figure out a cross member for the t-case.

    the V6 has a chain driven t-case also, aka poo.

    thats the just of it, what else did i miss?

    Like so...

    that trans is weaker than the rest, not worth it. $200 for the combo tops just because of the top shift. it is also shorter and with throw your Drive shafts and mounts off.

    When I put the 22re in the Charlie truck Eric and I swapped the entire harness to one from a 22re truck (lights and all).
    ... it was fun,not super hard, you just have to strip it all the way down... dash and all.

    Thanks for the input, if it had just been wiring and motor mounts that would have been something. Don't think I'm going to try to tackle this. I'll just keep looking for a running truck or a 22R truck that needs a motor.

    I'm about to sell Blanche, Melanie's Stratus. She's pimping the Accord, and I want a little truck. We had one, but some uninsured habeeb pulled out in front of Fred.

    Thunderbird will do just fine.
