idi tranny question

Good afternoon swappers,
Doing research on a potential idi swap into my 92 bronco. It has been reccomended to go with the 5.9 cummins, because the bell housing is the same and the motor weighs less than the idi. Well the motor doesn't weigh that much less, and I'd rather have the idi. So....it is my understanding that some diesels came with the e40d electronic tranny. This is what I have as well. Does anyone know for sure if an idi will mount to my tranny?

nope. diesel trans is diesel specific, and gas trans is gas specific. then to make matters worse, there are different bolt pattern gas transmissions.

but you can find an E4OD for a diesel, and they can be built to hold up to anything you want to throw at it for a rather respectable price.


or you can go with a bulletproof C-6 trans.

The idi will not bolt up to your tranny, but the cummins wont either without an expensive adapter.
