KA24DE transmission question

[bigdawg182]

Will an auto transmission from a SOHC fit on a DOHC that was factory 5 spd? Basically, i'm swapping from the SOHC to the dual, without doing the manual conversion too. THANKS in advance!

*bump* help guys, c'mon

yes it'll fit. if the car was a dohc with a manual transmission as I'm assuming, you'll have some wiring to do. but if it's auto to auto, then shouldn't be too bad at all. just a real pita to get it up and fitted.

so i'll be needing that wiring to be done then... any suggestions??? thanks.

just out of curiosity, why going from manual to auto?

[bigdawg182]

honestly, i'm lazy. the shell its going into was a factory auto and i don't wanna mess with the pedal/lines/clutch master cylinder, things of that nature.

I have another one that isn't is as good a shape (body and interior on the automatic are damn near perfect) that is a 5spd, SOHC. It runs now, after slight work, put won't pull. It sat in a field for like 4 years before i got it, so i'll change the clutch plate and throw-out bearing on it, and if that doesn't fix it, i have the other 5 spd transmission to slap in it! Its motor needs rebuilt to, so i'll drive it until it blows, then maybe do a KA24DE of SR20DET swap on it. I have a maxima too, and i considered pulling the VG30E out of that beast and using it in the 240!!!

But the sad part of all of this is that my everyday driver is a 1990 Silverado with a built 350 in it. I'm just building the 240 to have something to drive when i'm working on my truck.
