The only difference between the L45 and the better L52 is that the knob on the same shifter handle will be missing the 5th gear marking, there will be an added gate for the handle to move right and forward into gear, and the trans will hold about 4 ounces less gear oil.

Everthing else is 100% boltup :beerchug:
