Do I have the right overdrive? 700 1988

I pulled my transmission from my 745T (M46) to do the o-rings in the overdrive and repair a leaking engine rear main seal.

The transmission has some writing on it in the type of crayon that they use at junkyards, so I am pretty sure that this is not the original transmission. The plate on the side of the overdrive says "P/J TYPE".

On the IPD site, they identify rebuild kits as for a P type OR a J type, but not for both letters together.

I'm pretty sure that the overdrive in the Turbo's is a more robust unit, and I am afraid that this might not be the overdrive for a Turbo.

BTW, this was the easiest transmission I have ever pulled. Could be because I was ready for some "gotcha's" from doing the clutch on my 245 a few years ago. For example,I had enough 1/2 extension to get the top side bolt out easily. It took me about 90 minutes to get the trans out (which includes time to refill the coffee mug!)
