The rebuild kit doesn't answer the whole question re bolt up or no. I learned the hard way on my current project. All the books said I had a Chrysler 904 automatic with a "unique bolt pattern" in my 86. The rebuild kits for this tranny are identical to the kits for the domestic RWD 904 trannys. I bought a 3.9 V6 dakota engine for an engine swap in the hope that the "unique Bolt pattern" was the ubiquitous small Mopar LA pattern. It would have made a killer drivetrain for the Monty IMHO. But alas when we got everything out on the floor it wasn't even close. Not only did my recently rebuilt man trans narrow pattern 2.6 not fit, a wide pattern starion block was also a no go. So I'm converting the unique AT block to turbo specs minus the oil squirters.

For what its worth, I think you are worrying for nothing about future replacement of the diesel motor. Not in your lifetime will it wear out with regular maintainence. If you want more power, increase turbo boost, intercool it, up grade fuel delivery, and or add propane injection. I'm ending up spending much more than I had planned on this turbo build, more than had I just bought a 2.5TD drivetrain from ebay.
