There have been a few. I don't know how often Packard Dude checks the forum so he may miss your post since they disappear from the recent topics list rather quickly but he was the last to comment on a conversion. You might send him a PM and see if he picks up and can answer your questions. If the 700R4 will fit I would expect the 200 will too. Probably the biggest issue with the conversion on the S8 is the need for 12v to power the mini starter.https://packardinfo.com/xoops/html/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=204506#forumpost204506

Did you also have a V8 where you were considering doing the conversion? If so did you finish it and how did that turn out?
