    Chev V8 to Isuzu MSA

    To the Gurus that cruise other sites.
    I need some help.
    Has anyone seen the above conversion done as I have a Chev V6 diesel in my 6x6 with a 4L80 auto box. Its been a good box in the 2000k,s its been in but gives me the irrits because 1st gear is too high.
    I have The Grubb working on the problem as I would like to put the MSA in but it would be good to know if this has been done before.
    All help and advice much appreciated.

    No. Mal Storey cut the Tbox off an LT95 so I get to keep the 3rd axle drive and bottom PTO. I would have to adapt it to the MSA also.

    The problem is that it is a Forward Control camper and the normal gear lever would be back about 4 feet. Thats why I need a box with a remote cable gearshift and why I put the auto in originally.
    Anyone want to swap a 4BD1T with MSA for a Chev 6.2 diesel and 4L80?
