Default quick question....

i have a 2000 pontiac grand prix gt with the nonsupercharged 3.8 v6....now my question is would the tranny from the supercharged version bolt up to my motor or will there be alot of prolems doing that? i only ask bc i can get the supercharged tranny for about 400$ cheaper

the main difference is that the GTP has a 2.93 final drive and a heavy duty diff. the GT has 3.29 gears. thats it. if interested i can change the gearing for you in the PCM.

The non-supercharged tranny is a 4t65e. The supercharged tranny is a 4t65e-HD "heavy duty". There is a gearing difference so the PCM will have to be reflashed. You can use your 4t65e torque converter on an HD trans. You will need a passenger side HD axle from a 2000 GTP. The HD trans has a larger differential and the axle is shorter then a non-HD trans.

The torque converters have different bolt patterns. You would have to re-drill your flexplate or get the correct flexplate. I would recommend using your non-HD torque converter because it is physically smaller and has a higher stall then an HD converter. Depending of coarse if your tranny failure compromised your torque converter.
