Does it have to be a w-30 number trans if so might be tuff to find one .

What about a rebuild on the one you have ?

Also if you list your location might help to find one near you

Even if you find an OW trans, it will never be numbers matching to the car. All transmissions had the vin stamp on them. The difference was in the clutch plates, and shift firmness. You can build your own TH400 to better specs and add the OW trim tag to look more correct, but unless you find the original one, it will not be numbers matching.

X2, I'd certainly spend some time trying to find one, with lots of luck you might find the one from your car. But I'm with the others, why bother spending the money on an OW trans, sure there were some internal differences but most if not almost all of them have been rebuilt anyway and the VIN stamping on it won't match anyways.
