        Thanks for sharing. A lot of work for sure, but you are getting close to the finish line. Like your fabbed engine mounts, and dipstick. You'll have to share if you find a driveshaft combo that will work. Probably have to go custom.

          Are you transferring the entire wire harness/cas/kombi etc over? or something else? :)

          I'd think the hardest part of the N54 would be the fuel system, although the DI pump is on the block rather than in the tank, so it's maybe not so bad.

              Didnt even bother looking for driveshaft that fits. Custom all the way.

                    I watched as much as I could, but it kind of made me seasick.. lol

                    previously, you had to use the CAS etc. because there was no way around the EWS on MSD80. But now I have made an EWS delete for it. :)
