    yes it will all bolt up and run but the torque converter will not lock up. You will have to change the loom to the ecu and ecu to suit a 5dhh transmition. Keep the loom and ecu within the same model VR to VR and VS to VS. Do a search this topic has been covered before.
    Never be afraid to try new things; remember amateurs build the ark while professionals build the Titanic.

    As cruzn said, it will work. You can use anything up to and possibly beyond a 7HDD - you just need to swap over the extension housing on the later models.
