Tranny Question

[ejazz]

I have a '85 K10 Chevy with a 6.2 Diesel in it. My question is: can I replace my 700R4 with a turbo 350 from a gas engine? Will this bolt up or will I need to make other modifications?

i dont have a stock air intake nemore but i did notice that i have a k&n air intake assembly. well about that adding 25 horses i REALLY HIGHLY doubt that, my k&n air intake dont even add that, when air intakes say they add up to 15 horses or so that normally means with very big mods otherwise it might add like 3 or 4 horses.

The 350s use a vacuum modulator to sense engine load for shifting. Since diesels don't have a throttle plate, there is no manifold vacuum. I don't know for sure how the 700r4 on your truck senses the load, but that's the only possible problem I can think of.
