how are these ? i found a whole truck i can use for a build project and its got one in it with a allison at545 auto . its a 1990 model and has 76k miles on it and was a 1 owner local truck its whole life . no major highway time . had a flatbed on it for hauling bulk bailed cardboard or crushed soup cans for a recycle yard .

any feedback would be great thanks .

if there junk even in there best days i have time before its needed to swap it to a gas engine . would i need a different trans adapter plate ? never seen in person a 8.2 to know what bell pattern the block has on the back .

this would be used as a local haul truck for my new job i have in the works and no real super heavy stuff or hard life .
