    1994 VR series 2 transmission swap help

    Thanks guys :-) I will Be putting the 7hdd in next weekend then, as on closer inspection of this solenoid staking, seems easy enough. Failing that i suppose i could just swap valve bodies and loom. Either way not having to buy a trans is a win for me :-) A little off topic... Is the sump...
