That unit is for a 1996-97, it will not work in a 92. Would need more pics of the bell housing & input area to get an exact match.

if it has more than 3 pins in the electrical fitting going in to the transmission then its a 47re. 2 pins = 518 46rh, 3 pins = 618 47rh more than 3pins its a 618 47re

im rather certain its a 47RE. it could be made to work in a first gen but its def. not a direct bolt in. u would need the engine adapter plate which will require the second gen starter and prob the flexplate. also this trans requires a computer to operate. its not an option. it would be much easier to swap in a 47RH as a computer is not required for it. still need all the second gen stuff though.

also to add to what ken said, it would be at least a 47RE with more than 3 pins. it could be a 48RE based only on that.

The gasser version is going to require some changes to run behind a diesel. Torque converter for sure.

This is why we would need to see the bell housing area to confirm what it is. It could be a 46RE (gas application) and that has the wrong bell configuration to bolt to a cummins.

IIRC the shift points/valve body are different
