Nope.
No such thing as a 49RE.

Yes the imaginary 49re will bolt up, however you may run into some imaginary problems considering the imaginary mounting bolts are backordered

none. 46re only. 47/48 won't fit the 5.2/5.9 engine.

however, during a rebuild, additional clutches and steels can be added to 47RE specs (2500 series) and also a increased planetary swap can be done to get to 47/48 specs (2500/3500). that's about it.
