22re auto to 3.0 V6 5 speed

Nope. You need to find a bellhousing from a turbo R151F tranny. That bellhousing bolts to the 22RE on the engine side, and an R-series tranny (R150F/R151F/R154, etc) on the other side. Just be aware that those are as hard to find as the turbo transmissions. BTW I have one that I have for sale if I don't use it on my 87 auto truck. You got a killer deal on the R150F tranny and case since while the R-series transmissions are strong, no one wants them because the attached transfercase is a chaindrive unit.
