Question where would I find this adaptor and will new transmission fit in same hole of floor transmission coverplate? | | | | | Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 | Shouldn't need an adapter, the S10 T5 will bolt right up. I'm not sure about the shifter, but I beleive it will be ok, or at least close.

Read up on it. What ever you have to do the results are rewarding.
