the older ones like the 330 or 220 could use a leslie.i played a 330 with a 147 
leslie on it.later on   when i played a 750 b  scarborough,  i missed having 
the leslie even though it had the flute trems on it.and of course   i have no 
interest in any newer digital organs.  milt miller   detroit

I am not failure with the 700 series but would strongly suggest that the 
repair of the amp would be the best way to go. What you want to do is 
possible it would not provide satisfactory results.
While Leslies did wonders for Hammonds rest assured it will not do justice 
to the pedal on any organ that is voiced to have imitative pipe stops.
Kindest regards
