5speed tranny to a auto engine

[talon91500]

Hi I have a 5speed 95 GS-T and im trying to get a 92 talon engine but its a auto tran. engine if i bulit that engine from the inside out and then drop it in could i put a 5speed tran. on it with no problems. I know. if im not mistaken i may need a 1G tran. for it but is the change possiable? Thanks for any answers.

if you get the motor from the 92 doesn't matter if the trans is auto or manual the motor is the same. your 95 gst 5 speed trans will bolt up to the 92. as long as both are going into a 2g. As far as i know you cant put a 1g trans in a 2g body cause the mounts are different.

also...... super important, you need to make sure to get the pilot bearing out of the auto, eng. crank.... there a bi*** to get out, go to auto zone and tell them you need a "BLIND - HOLE" puller also you know that tin plate that sits between the block and the tranz.... YEA well that it diffrent from autos vs 5 speed... you WILL NEED a 5 speed tin plate if you ever want your starter and stuff to line up....

i been there done that.. it sucks to have everything bolted an in and forget about that ...then have to TAKE everything back apart , just for 2 little 10mm and a tin plate....

Thanks A lot for the info! So from the sounds of it im going to have some fun. But the good thing is that it is possible to do this.

u cant swap a 1g tranny into a 2g..what u can do is get just the motor and swap it with your tranny..it will bolt right up..plug and play...

I just thought about something. What about the whole 6bolt and 7bolt deal? Will it still fit with the 2G trany? I just want the engine and built it up and drop it in with the 2G body. What do u guys think?

i think u can swap a complete 6bolt motor but it has to be with the 2g tranny..and to swap a 6bolt block with a 7bolt head u have to drill the head bolt holes to the size of the stud in block cause the studs are bigger than the 7bolt ones.
