Re: 86 K30 Restomod LS swap AKA Blue Rust
I had the transmission rebuilt with some basic upgrades and a shift kit by a local transmission shop and I took on the np 205.
I also had the transmission shop install a rear vss into the transmission. I am not worried about knowing my speed in 4Lo, it should be half of 4 HI
The 205 needed a bit of work for being such a "bulletproof" rated case. The input and output shaft were worn out where they fit together with the needle bearing rollers, shift collars and forks had wear etc.
So I ordered all the rebuild parts and twin stick from ORD and put it all back together. If I recall the shift forks needed a little grinder work for some clearance in an area or two. Don't forget to put the magnet back in before starting to reassemble....
