    6.2 diesel to 396 swap.

    That was exactly my plan. The motor has headers but they are HUGE and idk if I can get them to fit. They go to like a 4 or 5 inch out.

    6.2 diesel to 396 swap.

    The thing is I feel like it’s gonna have to be torn completely apart. It’s snaps your neck when in shift, it’s super delayed putting it into drive and reverse and clunks when you do, and it shift into third at like 50...

    6.2 diesel to 396 swap.

    Alright so I’m pretty sure he has all of the adapters and such, and if so I will probably just keep that pump and run the setup he had. I’m gonna put it up to the turbo 400 for the meantime while I save for another (I’m 17). And I think the tranny I have is past the point of a rebuild it’s so bad.

    6.2 diesel to 396 swap.

    So I should shoot for a 700r4? Cause I need the 4wd and I already thought I would just scratch the 2 speed idea. Hopefully my buddies dad has all the brackets and stuff...

    6.2 diesel to 396 swap.

    It is on 35x12.5s. And is there kits for a serpintine belt? Don’t they just make brackets for the alternator and pump? Maybe the diesel ones will fit?

    Update: it was never in a boat, just the headers...

    Also I think that’s just an electric water pump. That’s what his dad said. It was in a race ranger after a boat

    6.2 diesel to 396 swap.

    It was in a truck last after it was built, so he might have some of that stuff already.

    I’m not sure that’s what he thought his dad said.

    6.2 diesel to 396 swap.

    Okay so in conclusion I’m gonna mate it up to the current tranny. So I will need just a new tc. I’m gonna need motor mounts unless the 6.2 ones will work? The radiator will work correct? Is there anything else I will need?

    6.2 diesel to 396 swap.

    I will probably just bolt it up to the one I have and save my money to buy a built turbo 400

    6.2 diesel to 396 swap.

    What about the tranny bolting up to the transfer case? It’s a np208

    6.2 diesel to 396 swap.

    What about hooking up to the transfer case????

    6.2 diesel to 396 swap.

    So now I’m confused, when I swap it I have to buy a brake booster for a gas, correct? What about power steering.

    6.2 diesel to 396 swap.

    Wait, I won’t lose power steering and brakes will I? And my daily driving isn’t typical it’s more like drivin 4 minutes into town and there’s no traffic or anything...

    6.2 diesel to 396 swap.

    It does have a th400 but it’s completly shot, it lags and shifts hard as a mofo. I believe the motor was in a boat and than it was pulled and built. He said it makes about 435 hp and 500 ft tq. And it is a power glide my bad. Will that tranny bolt up? Not to the motor but will it fit nicely in...

    6.2 diesel to 396 swap.

    I’m pretty sure it’s a built drag tranny. The motor and tranny were raced...
