We used to outsource auto rebuilds so I never really fiddled with autos other than normal band adjustment and filter changes but I believe they are interchangable?? Not 100% sure though.

Yes they are interchangeable, I have tried to do it myself but ran into trouble with a big O ring that is impossible to hold in place when bolting up the new bell housing :evil: , so off to an auto specialist and had it done for $30 :D , he even replaced the reverse plates because mine were stuffed, and still only charged $30 :D :D :D , Trev 8) .
