This might be a dumb question but my 84 pickups motor has seen better days and I want to get a new motor and rebuild it before my current motor finally gives up. My concern is will a newer 22r bolt to my tranny. I ask because I know the 85 and newer blocks have different deck heights. Its just easier to find newer blocks than new ones. Thanks for the input you guys are a great resource.

They will not bolt up, they switch tranny's when they went to the new block style

I just swapped in a 1989 W-56 into my 1984 22r with NO problems at all.

Maybe I wasnt really clear. I want to put a newer year motor in front of my 84 tranny. I just question if it would fit do to the two different blocks.
