700R4/np205 setup - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Trying to get all info on putting a np205 behind a 700r4

I have read that you have to either change output shaft on tran or shorten it by 3/4". Use an adapter for th350 then good to go

Anyone have more info? Thanks in advance.........Rick

Got the adapter, obviously the above information was wrong. Anyone have the right scoop on this change? Thanks.........Rick

Looks like I'll have to go with advance adapters unless someone comes up with better idea.........thanks......Rick

You can use the stock TH350 adapter, but you have to run a shortened output shaft in the tranny or build a spacer to take up the difference.

Thanks for info. Advance adapter has shortened out put shaft. I have th350 adapter but the np 205 was out of 4-speed. AA also has coupler to go to 10 spline goes inside th350 adapter. That setup is $276. It's $172.50 just for the output shaft. I don't think I could find input for 205 27 spline for less than that. Plus I would have to swap out. Let you know. By the way my truck is '70 K10 shortbed fleetside.Fac AC PS 6cyl ........Rick

If you go all gm parts you'll need an adapter from a TH350, the input shaft for a np205 that was set-up for a TH350 and the short trany out put shaft from AA. or find a complete NP205 that is from a TH350 set-up. ( 27 spline )
