I'm not 100% sure but if you have a 1g, a 2g auto trans will not fit, the torque coverter is bigger in a 2g and the 2g trans is bigger. I'll look around and see if I can find any info on that.

Oh duh sry I thought you were trying to put a 2g trans in your 1g lol. Try calling a mitsu dealer and see if the 1g 6 bolt and 7 bolt's have the samepart # torque converter.

i also know that the TC's part # for the 6 bolt and the 7 bolt ARE different but i was told the only difference is where the crank goes into the TC's the 6 bolt's hole is a lil deeper for the 6 bolt engine crank shaft is longer than the 7 bolt
