    Considering that it won't bolt up to an M20 or M42 and you will need a custom drive shaft, yes. If you mean fit in the tunnel, nothing a hammer can't fix.

      The tranny would be mated to Euro S38B38 it comes with :twisted: ;)

      So with that siad the Big F'ing Hammer should still be warm from fitting the engine, if needed for tranny fitment

        a custom driveshaft isn't much of a problem, so if you really have the dough for an S38 conversion break out the sledgehammer. :twisted:
