New Member, Need Some 302 Tranny Info

Post by Kris »

what i am wanting to do is throw a carb. 302 in my truck, i cant handle these 2.8's, ive went through one allready, and the second is leaking oil, and now burning it(allthough im sure its just burning because of the valce seals)

swapping in a 302, is there any standard transmission i can run that will bolt up to the stock 1350 transfer case? i wont run any other case, because of the doubler. or am i better going with a c5? and if i go with a c5, what do i get the bellhousing from so that it will bolt to the 302?

Thanks

you already have the doubler?

if you wan to keep it then get a conversion bellhousing but i can't say how long the tk5/4 will last with v8 power

other than that i can't say cuz i run c6/203/205

i was under the impression i can not run the tk4 behind a 302, and i need all the driveshaft legnth i can get, if i even go through with this swap.

why not go with the 4.0 conversion i think it will fit your tranny. just a thought. it's no V8 but it's better than a 2.8.

the c5 will work if you swap some internals from a c4 into it. the 4.0L will be a bolt in applcation.

Is that a 1350 doubler, if so, how's it working for you and who built it?

its being built by TLE 4XFAB up here in canada, not quite done yet.

the 4l would be a swap in, but there is so much wiring it is rediculious.

run the c5 with a c4 bell, or a c4 with a c5 tailshaft and housing for the tcase
