Message: [QUOTE="swamp_ratt, post: 78842, member: 114"] Please make this a sticky! Here is what to do! You will need to find a t444e that had an auto trans behind it. You will need to grab the flywheel housing, starter, SAE2 to SAE1 adapter ring, flexplate, hub spacer, torque conveter plate and lock ring. Of course all bolts with such pieces will need to be retained. You can buy all of this on ebay for around 600 or less total, but going to your local junkyard is much cheeper. I picked all this up for 40 bucks! Install all onto your motor after removing the original psd aluminum trans spacer. However i have not yet been able to confirm if the allison 1000 torque converter will bolt to the plate in this setup. If not it would be easy enough to make a new one. Will know possibly this weekend! This setup however does utilize an allison at545 so i cant see it being much different if at all. On your allison 1000 series transmission remove and sell the OE gm bellhousing and go buy an OE allison 2000 SAE bellhousing. A new one can be had off ebay for about 100 bucks! Bolt the SAE allison 2000 bellhousing to your allison 1000! They use the exact same case so no modifications needed! Bolt up to your motor and go! For 4x4 applications either figure out how to wire in an electronic transfer case gear selector, try to find a manual shift transfer case that bolts to the allison, or go divorced. I myself am going divorced np205. The wiring is a little bit different story. PPE makes a stand-alone harness but does NOT advertise it. Tune you tcm with efi live or leave in stock form! Here are the pics of the required pieces needed from the t444e! Yes it has to be a t444e and not an idi model! I do not have a picture on hand of an allison 2000 SAE bellhousing but you get the idea!
