(09-16-2013, 09:39 AM)Jetmugg I'm in the very early daydreaming / planning stages of a project where I'd like to be able to couple an OM606 to a Doug Nash 5-speed manual transmission.
I've done some research on adapter plates, but haven't found exactly what I'm looking for. That doesn't mean that what I'm looking for doesn't exist, maybe I just haven't found it yet.
There are commercially available OM617 to GM adapters on the market, but are there "bolt in" solutions for an OM60x to GM manual transmission solutions readily available?
Steve.
I am doing a 98-99 606 to a GM adapter. I made an aluminum plate for the block to the bellhousing. I had a crank adapter and flywheel made by Wilcap in Calif.
I am doing another conversion in a 4runner, I can get the crank adapter and flywheel made locally for $500.00. On this conversion you have to use the stock 606 flywheel and starter and space the standard flywheel without a ring gear behind it.
I also contacted transmissionadapters.com about the 606 adapter, they sent me a picture of it and the price was $795.00. The owner does have an attitude, but was okay with me. There adapter is for an automatic only due to the flywheel issue. I have done a lot of research on this and there is no one making an adapter for a standard transmission.
FYI the dodge sprinter engine bellhousing bolt pattern is the same as the 606 and they have a standard transmission available.
