Hi guys, happy new year, & when your headache has cleared I would welcome some advice. I live in S/W France, local motoring is conducted at less than 50mph (80kph),. I have a 300tdi classic 4hp22 auto box. Top gear lockup is at 85kph so most of the time is in 3rd gear. Now for the tech bit, can I put a 4hp22 box from a 3.9 v8 in my classic as I think lockup is around 45mph (70kph), & can I fit the larger TC at the same time? I can't remember if the starter motor is on the same side as the 300 tdi, any other bits I might need?
My box has done 95000km, mostly pulling a mobile machine shop up mountains & although it works fine when hot, takes 2km to change out of 1st gear when cold & slips out of gear on the overrun at 20kph so it's time for a change.
Any advice from the experts on here would be appreciated.
