As Neil said, the DK from an aircooled will replace the early diesel 4
speeds such as DZ and DM codes. The tranny size is the same and both the
nose mount and linkage fit the same. This is frequently done when people
with 82 diesel vans change to a more powerful engine. Of course the
bellhousing on the DK has to be changed to the diesel one and the input
shaft needs to be shortened or changed to the diesel part. I have done
this both ways many times.
