Your billet although the same size will not fit the 5600, you can sell it and the trans to offset most of the cost. I got my 5600 as a core for 1200.00, all it needed was the 5-6 syncro, fixed it and she runs like new. The key is to have good fluid and make sure you put a filter on it to keep it that way. Although the 5600 is more expensive to fix it is is much stronger than the 4500, although people say parts are hard to come by, i had no trouble finding anything i needed for it. I would say go for it if you can, call the salvage parts yards and pick up a decent core that is not in pieces, unless you can get a deal on a good used one. Let me know if i can help you out.

Does your 2000 have a wide cross member with 2 sets of slotted holes?
