What in the world is that transmission? I can't find information on it in searches in this forum or elsewhere.

A friend has a '98 GMC 1/2 ton 2wd with the Vortec 350 and a 5-spd. The gates are amazingly short and it shifts well. The case is rather large as well. I would like to track one down from a junkyard but don't know what it is.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

the 5 speed in my 90 was a getrag or nv3500. I got a rebuilt one on ebay for 900 shipped. Dont know if they used them in 98 but thats what mine was.
just my .02

It won't be a NV4500 in a 1/2 ton. It will be the Getrag or 3500.
