You guys are missing the point. He's asking what driveshaft should he use with his GETRAG 240. Let me look for you buddy.

I think you are missing the point. I am using the 240 w/ my 24v swap

Ok won't the m52 flywheel/clutch/starter work with the 240 trans ?

[jahnaboi]

First part of acceptance is denial. +X Lol.
Second is admitting when your wrong. <--- what i did. Hahaha

[MIKe30]

uh oh, so does that mean an m20 wont work with G240 internals and 318is driveshaft??

i know this is 24v swap section but the m20 is coming out of the car that is getting a 24v so it still counts! :D Just happens to be going into my 318is since the m42 just died...
