i recently shot my 700r4 from my 83 trans am... the troubles i have had are astounding. anyways, i had a afriend give me what appears to be a good 700r4 but the old tourque convertor wont even fit in the housing area. the spline count is right but the housing seems smaller,.... i used a smaller stall convertor on a repair, and before i go thru with pulling the old can anyone tell me if all the 700 r4 tranny housing will fit... was this a v-6 housing? who knows..

 

If a 12 inch converter wont fit, i would be on it being a V6 700r4. Too bad.
