I'm not postive on this, but I believe that most commercial vehicles and MV's such as the M54 and M35 series diesels use standard SAE bellhousing dimensions. I'm not sure if
using standard SAE bellhousing mounts makes everything interchangable or not. Can anyone enlighten us on this point? That may mean that an Allison automatic could be used
in place of a Manual 5 speed?
