If you had the 200 and want the 700, you'll need to swap driveshafts at the same time.

Re: TH200C to TH700R4 Swap
The crossmember is different. The rear mounts on the body of the car become the front. If you're short on money, you can cut the tq arm a little short. I would rather get some aftermarket setup, such as a spohn trans crossmember with tq arm mount and tq arm. The driveshaft is shorter, could get one from another car or shorten what you have. May be able to keep the same lockup stuff, but I'd count on having to do something like your own switch for it or some other aftermarket control. TV cable is longer. Dipstick tube I believe is needed. Tq converter cover is different if you end up using one. Need a different shifter if you plan on holding it in 1st gear.
