nv3500 transmission
« on: January 02, 2006, 06:12:56 PM »

What vehicle model/year used the nv3500 close-ratio manual tranny? Probably a dodge ram with magnum engine. I would like to swap a 360 magnum with this transmission, the gear ratio is decent compared to the others truck tranny. Is this an easy swap? Huh

NV3500 (Close Ratio) 3.49 2.16 1.40 1.00 0.729
TKO-500 Ratios: 3.27, 1.98, 1.34, 1.0, 0.68

Thanks

Fred

Surgery to the torsion bar crosmember will be in order to fit the trans in the car as well as a custom mount if i remember right, amoung other little details. Its not a "bolt" in like i assume your thinking. But i think it will be worth the time to do it IMHO. As long as your not stuffing a huge tourque motor behind the thing and power shifting it.
