Still seeking information on AW transmission swap ref: RPM sensor opening 700

I hate to "blanket post" all three series, but posting to ALL misses everyone not set to ALL...

The AW71 in the 87 744T parts car does not have an opening for the RPM sensor. Nor is there a “knockout” or anything similar to follow with a grinder or saw. It is a good transmission and I need one for the 90 244.

Some time ago I removed a bell housing from a junk AW70 transmission. I removed all the bolts and had to coax it off with a hammer. It also seemed as though that when the bolts were removed it allowed some of the internal components to become loose. It seemed like it would have been impossible to replace the bell housing without opening up the transmission.

So the questions are:

1. Has anyone here done a layout on a bell housing and cut out for the RPM sensor assembly? If so how did that go?

2. Has anyone here done a bellhousing swap on an AW transmission and what was involved?

Thanks
Randy
