AW70/71 for AW71L trans swap in a 945T? 900 1994

posted by  someone claiming to be tdinewguy on  Tue May 20 17:08 CST 2008 [RELATED]

Ok, so I have the 945T and I already posted about it, but I was wondering if I were to swap in a lock up transmission or would I just need the torque converter?

I have a donor car that has a good AW71L from a non-turbo car... so a swap should be pretty easy I'd imagine?

I do plan to boost up the motor a bit - but not go silly with it. I ended up buying a manual boost controller and plan to get it up to about 10psi boost so I can have a bit more power but don't need to modify anything else to hold up to it.

Thoughts? Please don't talk me into a manual, as I would love it but do not want to do that with this car - it's our family mobile and with the wife and kiddos its a no go.

Thanks!
