05 non-supercharged GP trans in 97 GTP?

[97PAGTP]

Wondering if a 2005 Grand Prix 3.8 non-supercharged transmission will work in my 97 GTP. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Don't think so as the gear ratio in the GT trans is different. Someone may correct that though. And of course its a non-HD diff as well.

it's a different plug and the 97 gt was vacuumed control
so you'll need to block off that tube

here is a 97 gt to 97 gtp trans

not all 97's were vacuum. Only the early ones. Late model 97's were the 65e.

He also has a 97 GTP not a GT. But they are diff gear ratios

a top swap on a non hd trans will kill that trans in a month or two

so i would say no

[Scottydoggs]

couldn't he swap the diff from the hd to the non hd, as long as thats not what blew up in the old trans?
