cars have Motronic, so they should have the mounting holes. In 9/'81 Motronic was introduced to the e12 based 633, so the '82 US Spec. L-Jet cars, don't have the holes to mount the Motronic sensors.

**If you are doing an Auto to Manual transmission swap, the 265/6 bell housings, on the '80 to '81 US Spec. The 280/5 is also a close ratio box but with the normal shift pattern and OD. Sometimes called the '265 Sport', it has a different, 'Dogleg' sift pattern with 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th on the 'H' pattern legs, and 'R' to the left and up and 1st to the left and down with no OD. The 265 is considered by many as the most desirable, but you have to make sure the bell housing has the required sensor mounting holes if you are installing it in a car with Motronic, only the '85 had them in the US. You tell the more desirable 260/6 over the 260/5 by the fact that the 260/6 has the fins on the bottom. The 260/5 developed problems and was pulled from production in '85 and the 265/6 was used again for the one year until the stronger 260/6 was introduced to replace it. The e28 based cars were all 5-speed OD (except the CR*) and included:Дў60/5 - 2 piece aluminum case with integral bell housing - No fins - No Intermediate section, was used in the '83 - '84 cars,Дў65/6 - 3 piece aluminum case with removable bell housing - No fins - 97mm Intermediate section, - used again only in '85Дў60/6 - 2 piece aluminum case with integral bell housing - With fins - No Intermediate section, was used in '86 and onДў80/5 - 3 piece aluminum case with integral bell housing - With fins - Small Intermediate section, was for the ///M carsДў65/5 CR* - 3 piece aluminum case with removable bell housing - No fins - 97mm Intermediate section - with the 'dogleg' shift pattern and no Overdrive, used in Euro 635's from '79 to '84 The reference to fins are the cooling fins cast into the bottom of the case.Д«asically on the e12 based cars before 06/82, the following transmissions were found:Дў62/(9?) - 2 piece aluminum case with removable bell housing - No fins - No Intermediate section - 4 speed was used in cars up to '79Дў65/6 - 3 piece aluminum case with removable bell housing - No fins - 97mm Intermediate section - 5 speed OD, used in '80 to '82** The bell housing may be an integral casting with the Main case or it may be a separate bolt on piece, but if so, it is not counted as a transmission piece. The transmission may be made up of an Main case and a Tail piece bolted to it (2 piece transmission) or a Main case, Intermediate section and Tail piece all bolted together (3 piece transmission). I n this article (and many others), the bell housing is not counted as a piece of the transmission case.

Some info I found, although not referencing casing numbers says this:ДЄll credit to user Chris Wright on ДЄn explanation of how to count the transmission case pieces: Unlike what any of the numbers on the casing seem to indicate. As far as I can tell, this 262.0.510.00 refers to a 265.
