Re: nv 4500 swap
First, you'll need a big bag of money...
There's a poster on pirate4x4 that makes adapters to mate the NP205 and NV4500 but I lost the link. You'll need to go and search their forums. |

Re: nv 4500 swap
mike you can get a COMPLETE adapter set up from Advanced Adapter for about 900 bucks. there are some things to consider first, how are your fab skills ? there is ALWAYS fab work to do when making changes. also the advanced adapter kit has a aluminum bell housing, with a 402 I would want a cast iron, the BB puts out alot more torque than a SB. and I am sure there are ALOT more things to consider when doing such a swap Coop

Re: nv 4500 swap
Welcome Mike. Look for Dirty Larrys build. He did the swap behind a big block. Do a search. Should be easy to find and lots of good info
