Default motor/tranny (th400) swap

this is more of a question of:

can you slide both the tranny and the motor in the sc300 TOGETHER as one piece? or would it not fit and need to install both separately?

th400 tranny? anyone have any experience? thanks

yes, it's quite straightforward.

i believe he's talking about a th400 not a standard tranny.

correct the TH400 tranny to be exact (per my topic post)

i've heard pretty much 50/50 reaction so i was curious anyone with first hand experience. i'm thinking it might be a bit of a pain to get it in together if even possible.

well i got a confirmation from DAVEH, master of NA-T that indeed you can slide both of them in together.. but you would have to have the motor mounts off first. then once they are in, bolt the motor mounts in.
