$800 is about $700 too much for a used 5 speed transmission. Unless that's an entire SOHC car.

The transmission bolts up to the same block in all 240s

Thanks guys ... I've searched and found a dohc for 700 bucks but the guy told me that someone went to see the car ,and he's maybe buying it but , I'll go tomorrow with the money if he haven't sold it until then. If I can't, I'll see if I get the sohc .
