Will GM 200r4 work with factory floor shift location?
OK, now I know what I have to do to get the pics to show up. Here are the pics of the transmissions clamped together by their front faces (flanges). If you look closely you'll see a 1/4 inch spacer where the 200R4 is clamped, the spacer represents the 1/4 inch TCI adapter I plan to use. It gives me a more accurate measurement of the distance from the front face to the trans mount on both trannys. I looked up the mount locations on line and they're not accurate...or at least they are not specific on whether the measurement is to the center of the bolt holes on the mount or to the front or back of the mount. Either way I know exactly how far it is front the front face now.
You can also see that the trans shifter pin/lever locations are almost in the same place relative to the front faces (that's nice). You can also see how much I had to hog out of the spare Cuda trans cross member so that I could get it pushed up far enough and high enogh under the 200R4 so as to get it in the same location with respect to the front face of the tranny. You can also see the distance between the 200R4 mount and where the Cuda cross member will be once the 200R4 is installed.
Thanks to all the hard work (and pics) done by "Mopar to ya" I can set the height of the Cuda cross member and approximate the distance vertically to the 200R4 mount. Is this TMI????
There is one pic of the hogged out Cuda cross member on top of a red piece of angle iron. If you look close you'll see some silver round marks on the red iron. I traced the cross member hole locations onto this piece of iron because I knew that as I cut up the cross member it would bend and twist into a different shape which would move the holes. Since I plan to use the cross member I need to be able to bend it back into the shape it was before I started cutting. The hole locations on the red angle iron will tell me when I have it correct again.
