I picked up a 93 Dodge NV 4500 2wd yesterday. I need some info on compatibility with mating to the GM engines. Is it just a bell swap or am I going to need an adapter? Also, what might I want to check or service before I install it? Thanks.

You didn't mention what engine it was behind. There is a difference.
Novak and Advance Adaptor have the best sites about what fits what with the NV4500. Of course, they are trying to sell you the parts to make it fit, so keep that in mind. JB Conversions sells a lot of NV4500 stuff and are probably the people to contact about what to look for.

Remember if you didn't build it you can't call it yours.

It was behind a 318
So, i'm assuming your going to run it divorced?
yep divorced trasfer case....
So you know the NV4500 is not a transfer case, right?

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking-divorced 4500. I have a 465/205 married combo allready but I stumbled on this deal and I have a divorced 205 also...so plans are ever changing. Anything might happen depending on which direction I decide to go. I have two and a half trucks and enough "stuff" to modify three or four. The NV 4500 will go behind the 6.2 in one truck with the divorced 205 and the sbc/465/205married will end up in my other truck later. Mainly, I need to know if I can just bolt a chevy bellhousing to the Dodge 4500. I think the trannies are the exact same as far as front bell bolts go but maybe the center hole is different or something. I had never seen what prior to this week.
You can't just bolt a Chevy bellhousing up. You might try getting in touch w/Spicer. He used a modified Lakewood bellhousing on his 6.2. Gimme a call if you need the number.

I knew a guy who ran a divorced t90 behind a sami 5 speed in a stretched sami. But I am pretty sure Gun512 meant running a divorced t-case since wrecker stated it was a 2wd NV4500....
My NV4500 is behind a 5.2 in my TJ and is married so I always wondered if the 2wd had a slip yoke or a fixed yoke on them or if they made them both ways. I thought about putting a auto in the TJ and putting the 4500 in the 715 but ran out of time/money.
