I am helping a friend put his car (87 NA auto -->5 spd turbo) together. He recently got a transmission for it and was told that it was a w58 out of an 88 supra that was twin turbo.

Well it won't bolt up to his 7mgte. The body of the transmission looks like another w58 that he has from a Mkii supra but the bellhousings are diffrent. This is all I know. Can anyone tell what this is by the pic?

The top of the bell housing will have a letter on it, what's this letter?

No letter on the top of the bellhousing. The top two bolt holes on the transmission are a 1/2 inch closer together than the engine bolt holes and the dowel pins are all on opposite sides.

Swap over the bellhousings and call it a day.

Well, we were going to do that but the starter bubble is on the wrong side of the one from the mkii. So it will work by just switching the bellhousing to a 7m ?

Well does anyone have an extra bellhousing for the W58 that will bolt up to the 7m lying around? If so, send me a pm. I am the guy that Zelfear is talking about helping. I just joined the site a couple days ago. Thanks guys.
