    Can the S54 mount to the g260 without any major mods?

    Hey guys I've secured a not so bad deal for an s54. But it's just of the engine. I'm guessing I will have to buy the ecu separately and I was wondering if I can use the G260 transmission or do I need to buy the ZF?

    Thank you

    the getrag bolts up directly but the engine will be at the wrong angle. you want a ZF at the very least, preferably a 6 speed but I understand the cost. the ZF 5 speed has similar gearing to the Getrag 420 except it has no 6th gear for cruising.

    I have an MSS54HP I can sell, I can flash it too.

      Ok I can probably find a junkyard with the 5 speed. By flashing it do you mean to remove EWS? If so please pm me. We're pretty much next door neighbors distance wise lol.

      Thanks

          itll bolt up and hold the power. Stock clutches wont handle the revs though. Pressure plate will explode.
