na tranny vs turbo tranny

do the bellhousings bolt right up to the other motor?

Yes. The gear ratios are very different though and a turbo tranny on a 5sfe will make it feel slower than snot. The drive shafts and knuckles are different.

actually the knuckles are the same, it's the hubs that are different sizes.

well i was thinking about making a turbo motor out of the 5sfe so i figured the turbo tranny would be better suited for it with an lsd
