A413 Blown any 4 speed auto options for 2.2?
Hello all,
I am trying to bring my Dodge Shadow back to life, the transmission has burned up in it and would like to upgrade it to a 4 speed auto if possible. Specs on the car are 2.2 tbi 3 speed automatic (a413 according to Wikipedia). I am not opposed to running a toggle switch to control an electronic overdrive if needed (trick for the older ford AOD transmissions)
The 2.2 is being swapped for the turbo II I already have laying around.
Also on a side note, can we put all the v6 guts into a 4cyl case for strength?
ANY input and advice would be great.
Thanks in advance
Jessie

There are no upgrades currently to put a 4 speed in a 2.2 car. You need a TCM to control it and one is not available. There are some threads in the trans section discussing this.
You can swap V6 3 speed trans guts into a 4 cylinder 3 speed trans case. If you're turning a TBI car into a turbo car you're either going to need turbo 3 speed trans or swap the V6 guts into a 4 cylinder trans case. You can't use or rebuild a TBI 3 speed trans for turbo use unless you upgrade certain parts, clutches and clutch drums to be exact.
