    Duramax / 6.2 swap

    OK, let's say I purchase a salvage truck with the Dmax, Allison & TC, and then obtained a Ford Dana 60. Now what? Will I also need the on-board computer from the salvage truck to make things work? Remember it will be installed in a 1986 truck.

    Duramax / 6.2 swap

    Well, I will have to say that you folks have all but talked me out of trying the swap. Unless someone can provide details for a system that will bolt in and work properly, I guess I will need to start thinking about pumping-up the 6.2. :( I would still like to continue receiving your...

    Mitch, I'm not really wanting a "hot" Duramax, just more engine than the 6.2. A standard Duramax will be just fine. And I prefer an automatic. The truck currently has a TH400 mated behind the 6.2, with a NP208 TC. Heck, if there was some way to supercharge the 6.2, I would probably leave...

    If the NP205 is not strong enough for all this power, then what TC would be?

    Duramax / 6.2 swap

    Well, what about this - Will a 4L80E mate to a Duramax? If so, would these units be compatible with each other? Will a NP205 mate to the 4L80E? Would that put the output on the correct side for the dana 60? I'm new at this guys, and really need and appreciate your help.

    Duramax / 6.2 swap

    Okay, here's a follow-up question. Will the Duramax mate to a TH400? Or will the Allison mate to a NP205? I need help guys. I really want to put this project together.

    Stupid me I apologize. I believe I have posted the above in the wrong place. Maybe the Administrator can move it for me.
