Hi- I'm new to this forum.
I am in the process of installing a redtop SR20DET engine with automatic transmission into a 1972 MGB. I would prefer a manual trans, but my wife would like to drive it as well, hence the auto trans. The trans is leaking, and I will need to replace the seals, as well as the filter and pan gasket. How should I go about finding parts? Are the parts common between the domestic auto trans and the JDM auto trans? I haven't found much info on the auto trans, any useful websites out there?
Thanks!
Wilbur

Exact same unit as the 89-98 US model 240SX and the 90-96 300ZX non turbo. Only the bellhousing is different. All parts, internal and external, will cross over.

Thanks for the info! I'm still new to the whole import thing, so I'll probably have a lot of questions that may seem obvious to those who deal with it all the time. I've spent most of my life working with small and big block Chevies. I could give cross references from memory on most of those motors, but haven't a clue on NISSAN motors. So every day is a learning experience.
