and was wondering if anyone here is looking to do the opposite and just trade drivetrains? Depending on the cost, I'd really like to do it. Or would I be better off buying the whole set up? ALso, with the 6 speed PCM, it shouldn't be too much of a problem tuning the car with hte 6 speed right? Any one who has done this, feel free to chime in.

 

I went the opposite way a few years back but I went to an older version automatic so I had no tuning issues. I don't know if you need to swap PCM's or not but you should be able to find a used one at a junkyard cheap if you need it. My spare PCM was only $50.00 from a local used parts place.

I still have the pedal setup for the six speed in my car. I don't need it. If you want to trade that is fine with me, however you will need to help me make the swap becasue I am not very mechanically inclined. I also have the cable and end piece to the six speed tied up with tie wraps under my hood and I don't need it so if you know how to remove it you can have it. I also have the old console, although the latch thing ir broken off but I assume that can be fixed.

In other words... I have a few of the parts, but I did trade the six speed gearbox for the labor to install my roll bar and I never could keep a clutch in the car which is why i switched in the first place. I went through seven different clutch installs in a year and a half. If you do it and plan on having more power than the stock clutch will hold I suggest getting the best clutch money can buy. I tried to save a buck and went with centerforce. maybe their products have improved since then but at the time I did mine it was an absolute nightmare.

 

Thanks for the response. I'm actually hoping to either do a complete swap of drivetrains with an M6 owner, but if that's not possible then I'll see what direction I want to go. I'll contact you when the time arrives.

 

I have a T56 and clutch assembly that I am looking to get rid of. I am located in Connecticut.

Will trade ya for Sox season tickets
