Transmission compatibility
Yesterday, while backing out of my driveway, my transmission decided to call it a day. I may have access to a loaner transmission to use while I rebuild my dead tranny.
Question:
Can a SIIA transmission be used to (temporarily) replace a SIII transmission? I know it'll bolt right up, but what about the clutch? Can I just plumb by SIII clutch master up to the IIA slave? Are there clearance issues with the physically-larger IIA clutch setup that I should be concerned with? I'd hate to have to swap bellhousings on a loaner transmission...
Thanks!
