TJ, that trans was used for a couple years only in the bus (I think from 72-75) and also in Squareback VWs (diff section is probably different but auto section is 003). I mounted a Vanagon 2.0l Air Cooled engine to it a few months ago for a customer so I would assume that would mean that waterboxers would also mount up. Does it function well? How much are you going to be asking for it?
