Yes
I have a 2 wheel drive R380 in my B GT. You will need to dress the top of the transmission tunnel up about 1 inch because of the height.
Bellhousings are interchangeable between LT77 and R380.
Assuming that its a Rubber bumper car or the chrome bumper tunnel mods have been done.

Good luck
Mark
