As some of you may know, I'm in the process of converting a 92 245 5 speed into a 92 245 Auto with an AW-70 tranny. While I was cleaning up the AW-70 and putting in a new downshift cable, I found that the tranny was a Volvo Reman unit with approx 20K on it since installation (yes, I was very happy since I thought it had 130K miles on it! My question is that all of the casting numbers inside of the tranny are 03-71 instead of the 03-70 that is on the housing... Does this mean that this tranny is "really" the "tougher" AW71? Since I am building the engine for more power, this could be an important issue.

Any info would be greatly appreciated!
