I don't think theres a kit but you could fab one up your self I bet. and I'm sure thats trans adapters for a KA to V8 conversion.

Uh if you do get it and convert, can I have the KA? lol

how can it only get 50mph? my 75 620 truck can do 80mph with the 4 speed, and who knows now with the 5 speed.

I had a 95 hard body with the KA24D, I agree the 50mph thing, but even with the auto, let the OD kick in on the interstate and it will still get down and move.
