There are minor differences beteen the G52 and W56 boxes. Mid eighties IFS Surf LN/YN61 has a W56 box, You will need to trim the hole in the trans tunnel and move the boot rubbers forward, the centre console also needs to move forward.

I have a W56 box out of LN61 Surf, you would just need to swap bellhousings for it to fit your 3Y.

Where are you located?
