Our Gen III LS Engine to AMC transmission adapter is perfect for customers that want to retain their factory AMC transmission and transfer case, but want the LS style engine. This kit will work with the AMC TH400 (1974-1979 style without factory spacer) and TF727 transmissions, as well as the TF904/909/999 and AW4 models.

This plate style adapter is precision laser cut and machined. Kit includes the adapter, flexplate, fastening hardware and instructions. It also features offset dowel locators and fastening points to help ensure long transmission life. The adapter is plated in black zinc for corrosion resistance.

Q: Will this fit the Vortec 5.3L? I keep reading at various sites that there is a difference between LS and Vortec engines, but that won't affect fitment of this adapter will it?

Asked by: Scott - 1/22/2018

A: Yes, yours is a Gen III Engine (also called Vortec) and this kit will fit properly.

Q: I'm assuming this adapter comes with complete install instructions. Would it be possible to get a PDF prior to placing an order and are these kits in stock and ready to ship? Thanks.

Asked by: Blake - 10/30/2018

A: These are typically in stock. Regarding the instructions, due to the proprietary nature of the products, the installation instructions are only supplied with the kit when purchased.

Q: What is the thickness of this adapter? Do you know if this adapter will work, with the bolt in motor mounts you offer, to locate an ls engine, without moving the transmission back?

Asked by: Andrew - 3/19/2019

A: This will work with our bolt-in adapters, but you'll have to shift the transmission slightly. The only way to keep the trans in the same location with this adapter is to use our weld-in mounts, so that you can adjust the placement of the engine.

Q: This kit seems to be different design than the 716131-V from AA. Which of these seems to be the preferred adapter for an AMC727 to Gen3 LS? Is this the Novak kit? I thought it was discontinued?

Asked by: Jim - 5/13/2020

A: This one was made by Novak and has been discontinued and is no longer available. The AA one we sell is the only current one available, and does a great job of mating them.
