I don't think you can use the v6 autos,might be differnt bolt patterns & other things different.The th700 go for about $800 std reco from a place in Botany,NSW.
Have you considered anything else like a th350 or a 2nd hand supra box or toploader if they can be found?

Do you have the torque-power bellhousing?
Have you spoken to any auto places for advice?
From what I have been told is that the powerglide/th350 convertors will also fit a trimatic so you would be able to use the 308 flexplates that suit it but you would need to have that info double checked bfore spending any money to save you any dramas.
