    Your tansmission will not like the power/torque from the engine. Even if you could find an adapter its a bad idea.

                  Why would you want to use the BMW tranny to begin with? There is no benefit.

                    I'm gonna go out on a limb and say he wanted to maintain his driveshaft, not mess with the firewall, and not have to look for a trans. I say go T56.

                    Nice sig, btw, MR 325.

                          its better than expected, we do a lot of drag racing and these things tend to add up at peoples houses ;)
                          also, i can get a 2001 mustang modular 4.6 and t56 (i think) for about 2500

                          but prop not buying it, im looking into 6g72 tt at the moment
