ECR5.0

I am looking to put in the gt-40 crate long block engine from summit. It has 345 hp with a b303 cam, but it says its only for a manual tranny. I have an auto AOD tranny. Can i still uses this engine?

yes..just put in a 2500 stall convertor

ECR5.0

so the teeth on the back of the engine will match up with the teeth on the tranny, just as long as i have a stall converter ill be fine?

2500RPM might be a bit much...

ECR5.0

what size stall should i go with, and i just wanted to make sure one more time that this engine will work with my trans and the flywheel thats on the back of the engine

i have a 3000 holeshot and i wouldnt go less. especially with future mods.

or you could just put in a t-5!! i guess it is just a preferance. i dont know AODs though, only sticks.

autos can be just fine with some modding , and with a good shifter a lil safer to miss a shif obviously , the most breaking newish stuff is screwing with the electrinics of a newer auto via a tweecer or something , imagine a auto that shifts fine most of the time a lil harder when you get on it and when your really on it like wot , ill shift like a full built racing trans slamming gears , since its electrinic it has more inputs on whats going on and can be more fine tuned

Is it a everyday car. If it is i would go with the 2500 stall.
