The m46 (4spd w/OD) is by most accounts a stronger transmission than the 5spd M47. Yes you could put an M47 in your car but it would need to be from a 740, or at least have a linkage/shifter bracket from a 740 M47. Some have reported long life from the M47 if oil is changed once in a while. I however have seen too many broken ones in turbos for my liking. Just my $0.02 worth.
