Simple Answer , The way it is . NO . I'll let a Trans guy Chime and Give you a reason or Reason's ! .

The only difference I can think of will be the extra bolt on that is on the SOHC motors. The old trans won't have that. You might be further ahead to swap the top plate as well as you'll have to use the old shifter with the old transmission.

If there's another reason but all means state it but that's all I can think of.

Are we talking 2wd or 4x4?

one is a a4ld, the other is a 5r55e. your going from bad to worse. a4ld is a 4 spd, 5r55e is a 5 spd, that and with major electronic differences.

Oops. For some reason I thought this was dealing with manuals. Been reading too much into those lately.
