Do I have the original transmission?

[jghall6]

I recently removed the transmission on my 87 GN. How do I tell if it is the original transmission? On the right side it has a adhesive paper tag with: "7BRF", "Three Rivers", "617BRFR00028817" and a barcode. There is also a yellow metal tag on the right side near the tail shaft that has: "BR F" and the serial number 327-871BRF 0247. I could not find a VIN number anywhere on the transmission case. The number on the torque converter is "CBCF" "8653673I".

As far as I know, you have a original transmission. All the Turbo cars got the BRF trans.

As far as serial numbers, thats beyonds me.

on the left side if the tail is facing you, there is a flat square what has a # stamped in it. it will match the vin on your car if its the orignal

I've looked all over the case, even the back left side and I can not find the VIN.
