Whoever this "someone" is, they don't know what they are talking about. The trans doesn't know how old the engine is - and wouldn't care if it did. All the trans cares about is how much power is being applied to the input shaft.


The engine and trans don't need to "correspond." As long as the trans bolts up properly and can handle the engine's power, you are good to go.
Thanks for the clarification. It took a lot of stress off my mind. It was my brother in law who isn't into cars lol. I'm a noob as it is so it had me going. And Good to know but I'd probably want to get a new crank as well as upgrading the internals with the new transmission anyways. It's nice knowing that I dont have too tho. Thanks again guys. Other thanupgrading the clutch master cyl, slave and pedal is there any upgrades worth putting into a transmission? like racing gears or synchros?
