GM 700R-4 REPLACING TH400 1971-79

NEW PROCESS 205/203

GM 700R-4 4 SPEED AUTOMATIC:

The General Motors 700R-4 has a case length of 23-3/8", and is available in two different engine to transmission bolt

patterns. The case is available with a Chevy bolt pattern that has the top two holes 8-1/4" apart or in a Buick bolt pattern

that have the top two holes 7" apart. The rear side of the transmission case should have a square bolt pattern that uses

4 bolts. You must make sure the proper shaft has been installed into the transmission for use with our transfer case kit.

The speedometer gear is normally located in the tailhousing, but when adapting it to the transfer case, the location will

change to the back side of the transfer case. The rear transmission support is located in the main case just forward of

the tailhousing connection. This can be used for supporting the crossmember on some installations, but most of our kits

provide support on the new adapter housing.

Our output shaft will protrude 1/2" beyond the face of the original GM adapter housing. When installing the new transfer

case adapter, make sure that the input gear in the transfer case and the output shaft do not bottom out. There are some

variations to the GM input gears that may require modifying of the new output shaft. We have found on occasion that

a transmission output shaft may be slightly longer than we have allowed for; and when coupling into the NP205, you might

find a small amount of interference The adapter housing and output shaft must be assembled to the transmission without

interference.

DO NOT FORCE THE NEW TAILHOUSING ONTO THE TRANSMISSIONS.

The modifications to the output

shaft can be done with the new output shaft installed in the transmission case. Caution should be given to these

modifications. If you are uncertain as to the exact cutoff location, please contact Advance Adapters toll free if assistance

is needed (800) 350-2223.

When assembling the adapter housing to the transmission case, we have provided you with a new square type "O" ring

seal to prevent fluid leakage. This seal is a stock GM item that is used on all 700R-4 installations. On some installations,

a slight pan modification may be required for clearance of the front Universal yoke.
The assembled length of the new transmission, adapter plate and original TH400 spacer housing will be exactly the same

length as the original TH400 assembly so no driveline modifications will be required.

INSTALLATION:

1. Install the output shaft into the 700R-4. This should be done by an experienced transmission tech.
2. Slip the o-ring over the adapter and install the 4 metric socket head screws to secure the adapter to the 700R-4.
3. Apply a small amount of silicone around the mating surface to the aluminum adapter. This will seal the stock TH400

adapter, and prevent fluid leakage.

4. Secure the stock housing to the adapter using the six factory TH400 bolts. The NP205/203 will now bolt to the stock

adapter using the stock bolts and the provided gasket.

5. Loctite all fasteners and use silicone sealant on all gaskets.

NOTE: If using this kit in conjunction

with our 50-0405 adapter, the reluctor

ring will require to be modified. The

inner lip of the reluctor must be opened

up to fit over the 32 spline shaft.
