All A-series engines use the same Transmission Bellhousing Pattern. This means any rwd transmission, from B10 to B310, fits any A-series engine.
No other Nissan engine shares this pattern. This means transmissions from Datsun 1600 or any other will not fit an A-series engine.
B110 used a dust cover
B210 used a rear engine plate
