2.3/2.6 190
 

i have a 87 2.3, i have a 89 2.6, the 89 is parts car only, i sold the trans everybody tells me there different, look same to me, just curious

the 87 2.3 has the 722.408 the 89 2.6 has the 722.409 not sure on the subtle differences between the two.

there is a good chance that they are INTERCHANGABLE but not identical. i dont know the difference either, but have traded a 140d tranny into a 280e and it works fine but the shift points are at the rpm needed for a 240, which is a lot lower than what is optimal for the 280e.

but it got a good car back on the road for very little money. i did it about 7 years ago and my brother is still driving the car with no trouble with the tranny.
