Re: Life after NV4500?
I think you hit it right on the nose with regard to the American
automotive industry, "modular". As I research for more modern engine/tranny
swap candidates, I find that a popular automatic transmission nowadays is
the 4L60 and 4L80 in heavier duty applications. Unlike earlier automatics,
they've incorporated removable bellhousings and tail sections. That makes
them much better candidates for true swaps, I think. When electronic
controls are incorporated it give these transmissions the ability to change
shift points and qualities. The 4L60E, for example, has been used in
applications ranging from 1/4 ton trucks to the Corvette. I'm sure that
production of new standard transmissions will pop up when a specific
application requires it, though.
