What you are looking for is a short 3N71B automatic. It has to be +- 26.3" long to fit your car.

 

Possible doners are

 

'72-'73 510 sedan and wagon.

'72.5-'73 620 truck.

'77-'79 200sx used a short standard so should have a short auto tranny so check length.

'78-'79 HLA10 (new 510) Check length, you will need to use your 5 bolt flex plate but the 'new' torque converter should bolt up OK.

Pretty sure you can install the trans from a column shift car and hook up the linkage from your floor shifter.

 

Can anyone confirm this?

 

 

I happen to have a very nice one for sale. I doubt you will find one in better shape for less money. A rebuild will cost at least double.

 

Here is a link to the info.

I think the column shift are only for the Borg Warner 35 trannys with the linkage on the driver's side the 3N71 is on the passenger side. I suppose it could be grafted over if it pulls the right way. Another concern is the 3N71B is downshifted electrically whereas the BW 35 has a cable from the carb.
