Re: 4.11 VTD tranny swap video

1) Do we have any indication that this particular tranny is any more durable than a stock svx transmission?

2) I am bit confused as to what mounts were the issue...was it the 4.11 transmission or the differential? Does the 4.11 transmission use stock svx mounts?
1) This tranny is out of a Legacy Twin Turbo. As a newer trans than a 92 SVX, it should have all the internal upgrades that later SVX transmissions have.

2) The 4.11 VTD does use stock SVX mounts, but not stock US SVX mounts. The tranny mount is on the rear housing. The VTD housing is different than the non-VTD housing, so, mounts specific to VTD are necessary.

Now, hopefully, the cat-out-of-the-bag, all of you won't bid against each other, or alert the importers that VTD transmissions have any value here in the US

Good job Nevin. You're too nice of a guy, I'm glad to see you succeed
