99' gtp engine/tranny into 01' gtp

[c4gtp]

First post here and sorry if this has come up before. I have looked and found great info!

But my question is, i just bought my first two s/c gp's. first is a spotless 01' with 119k and a transmission problem and from what i have read its a forward band? have to start in 1st and shift each gear manually. noticed an engine noise also and pressure in crank when you pull the oil filler cap off or dipstick out. bought the 99' with 96k for a donor. body is very rough. My plan is to do a full engine/transmission swap. the engine i am not worried about, but the transmission on the other hand, i have read some swap problems. is there anything i need to do for this tranny swap?


thanks for the help in advance!

Take a look at how the cooler lines are attached to the transmission. If they are both click style (I think they are) then you are all set. If not..swap the lines from the 99 when you do the motor/trans.
