Anyone have any info on swapping a Volvo 4 speed automatic for a Zuk 3 speed auto? I've heard of this swap, would like to hear from someone who's actually done it. What trans from what Volvo, any machining to be done, any special parts , how it's done etc. Info greatly appreciated.

Taken out of TT's thread so we're not hyjacking it...
I've tried to search for the info, and it sounds like a good solution, just need more INFO! What type and model of car, etc, what mods need to be done, so on and so forth, etc, etc, .
bentparts,
I didn't re-read this whole article to see if it's the one that has all the "good info" in it (I'm not on my computer where I have a few threads bookmarked), but I'm pretty sure this is it...

Basically someone found out there's volvo 4-speed transmissions that are the older style (mechanical) shifting. Models ending with "E" are electronically shifted. You need to use a Tracker bell housing (ironically I think he bought his from TT ;D ), and that bolts right up to the proper Volvo transmission. If that's not the link, let me know and I'll get you the right one when I'm at home.
