Not being an expert in the specific topic, but:

Isn't the type in your licence "B737 300-900"?

So I don't see any need for an "conversion". What you might do is a "difference training", which is done during 2hrs of sim training and a check flight (as it is done in our company), really no big stuff.

On a self-sponsered basis I would suggest to make some phonecalls to TRTOs, wherever you life.

PS: Just in case you're reffering to the -100/200s, it's different case, of course... But then we should discuss the "Original"-737s, not the "Classics".

Jurassics, Classics different TR's (although they both say simply "B737" on an FAA licence), NG/BBJ is a difference course, although it can be done from scratch.

God knows why you want to convert the opposite way most of us do.

PS. I could be wrong but I believe there are no -100's still in service, or even airworthy.

FAA/JAA...

It depends what youre looking for.

If its JAA, check out: http://www.jaa.nl/licensing/classtyperatings.html.

There the 300-500 and 600-900 are on the same rating.

Greets!
