88TSI_Rob Posted July 6, 2006 Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 Yeah, I found that a few months ago. It's a great resource. After reading through it I concocted a plan to swap an SRT-4 motor into a 5-spd Jeep Liberty! :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobalt60 Posted November 2, 2009 Report Share Posted November 2, 2009 (edited) This makes for a lot of info to go over but does this mean that the R154/narrowblock adapter will also work with; Jeep/Dodge AX15 5-speedJeep NV3550 5-speedJeep NV1500Toyota R150F, R151F & R155FIsuzu AR5Pontiac Solstice\Saturn Sky\Chevy Colorado\ GMC Canyon MA5 And do we want to use any of those transmissions? In particular, itd be nice if they were smaller than the R154, so as to more easily fit into the transmission tunnel.

Bill Hincher Posted November 2, 2009 Report Share Posted November 2, 2009 This makes for a lot of info to go over but does this mean that the R154/narrowblock adapter will also work with; Jeep/Dodge AX15 5-speedJeep NV3550 5-speedJeep NV1500Toyota R150F, R151F & R155FIsuzu AR5Pontiac Solstice\Saturn Sky\Chevy Colorado\ GMC Canyon MA5 And do we want to use any of those transmissions? In particular, itd be nice if they were smaller than the R154, so as to more easily fit into the transmission tunnel. I am working out the R 154 options,the problem with the R 154, its geared too high, here is the comparisions 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th R150 - 3.83 2.062 1.436 1.00 0.838 R151 - 4.31 3.32 1.52 1.00 0.83 R154 - 3.25 1.95 1.30 1.00 0.75 Starion (KM132-M-CNL) 3.369:1 2.035:1 1.360:1 1:1 .856:1 The R 150's 2wd are found on all the toyota V 6 trucks pre 86 The R 151 was used on the turbo 4 cyl Toyota truck and 86-87 and v-6 toyota trucks after 87 they sell for about 3-500 bucks on car-part.com and there are plenty of them The input shafts are shorter then the R 154, and they are different before and after 86, but all I have to do is change how the bellhousing is built and then cut the back plate for wwhich ever trans is ordered the problem is in the Starions, they have the torque tube set up in the rear end with limited selection of axle ratio's available the other problem is cost and availablity of the R 154 This all came about because I am building the wide block R 154, option and I been watching the cost of the transmissions . Once you pay $800.00 for a trans and $425.00 for a clutch, its hard to justify the adaptor The 96 and up input shaft for the R 150 and R 151 should be the same as the R 154 ( 7.5 I have to make sure of that) and the input shaft of pre 96 should be the same as the W 55's ( 6.5) the R 151 & 150 should be good up to 450 hp ( from what I can read) the pre 96 trans sells for $300.00 bucks all day long on car-part.com and all you need is a Toyota disc with the OEM Mits pressure plate and I think it would use the W 55 throw out bearing collar what I am saying is , I can either shorten or lengthen the bellhousing within a 1 inch range and drop the cost of the swap while increasing the gear ratio selection 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
