True, but I was answering in the question in the aspect that you could use the pumpkin, but yes it would not be a direct swap

Of course it looks the same inside, but when setting up gears, those .001's " make a big differnce in longevity & noise/whine (or lack there of). I don't see you installing 4:08's in an auto pumpkin with out grinding the gears to make them set up correctly. $.02 YMMV
