The 722.3 transmissions are all simular in design, starting in 1981 here in the USA.
The only trans designed for any more TORQUE than your transmission is from the V-12 powered cars & they won't bolt to the V-8.
How many miles are on the car? Transmissions & differentials should last the life of the car IF they are properly maintained.
