No. B-series and D-series trannies are not interchangeable.

I sold a d-series transmission to a guy wanting to bolt it up to his LS engine. I told him it wouldn't work, but he kept insisting and his money was green, so....


...about a week later I got a call saying it didn't work out and he was looking for a b-series trans.

the reason it won't work even if you figured out some adapter plate or some other way to mount it, is that b-series have equal-length driveshafts and d-series don't. so your axles wouldn't fit.

they're close enough to be dubbed equal length, as opposed to d-series axles.
