I don’t believe the NV1500 will work on anything but what it came out of. Does it have the bellhousing cast into the transmission case? If so, it’s a no go.
GM started changing their lineup in the mid 90’s. I know T5’s are getting harder to find in the salvage yards.
Dodge and Jeep had versions of the NV1500, NV3500, and AX15. Novak makes Adapters for GM bellhousing.
Chevy Colorado’s and Canyons had AR5/MA5 transmissions. Toyota had the R154. FYI,
They all share the same mounting flange as the Jeep transmissions.
