Selling the truck as is is not really an option right now and like I said when I get it back from my brother it will be worth next to nothing. I was not saying that I wanted to use the t5, just that it is a tranny that was hooked up to a 2.8 gm. The sticker under the hood says t75, is that the same as the mua5? I did notice the integral bell housing. Also the electronics are really really really not the issue. I don't plan on using any of them if I do this. Fabrication of mounts and cross pieces is no big deal either. Really I guess all I need to know is what tranny the 2.8 gm models used.
