Just bought the new engine towers and motor mounts from L&L to swap the 360 to the 460 motor. I will be using my 95' motor which is EFI and buying a mass air kit from http://www.mass-air.com/Products.htm#Tr ... Air%20Kits using the 80mm mass air with 30lb injectors... with the E40D... just debating now if I want the gear vendors auxilary transmission. I think I might just put it on so I get the length out of the driveline to get away from using the carrier bearing in the drive line....

I cant find a place that makes a adapter to mate a NP205 transfer case to the E40D transmission... So back to C6 transmission with married NP205 transfer case with the gear vendors auxilary transmission... so more or less I will have overdrive :roll:

check out the frame pictures of the 2wd vrs 4wd... crossmembers are different in the front and then looks like the 4wd is boxed where as the 2wd is not... so debating now what to do with that...

Looks like I will use the 2wd engine tower locations and pull the 2wd crossmember and make a better looking custom built one like below...
