In the US there is only type rating covering all the 737 models. Most schools use a 200 sim as it is cheaper. I know Higher Power in Fort Worth, Texas was doing the type in a 200 and they had a "glass transition" class for a few more days for foreign students who needed specific training in a 300 or 800 sim. None of the glass training shows up on the FAA certificate.
There is a lot of demand for 737 types in the US as Southwest Airlines looks kindly on applicants that already have the type. Runs about 6000 to 8000 dollars, again for the type in a 200 sim. If you wanted to do in a glass sim it will run you more.
