Volvo Owners Club Forum - View Single Post - conversion of the automatic trans. BW 35 for AW 7

Hello again :-)
Have any of you made a conversion of the automatic transmission from BW 35 for AW 70/71?

I am so lucky to have an almost new AW 70/71 from the early 240 models with external speedometer output.

And also the conversion kit "bell housing" as necessary.

My question is;

What conveter should I use? The one who sits on BW or AW?
Which "housing" do I need? The from BW or AW?
What overdrive should I use? The from BW or AW?

Hope there is help over there :-)

Good evening -
