I know the 4.4 and 3.0 engines use different transmissions. Your doing this on a 3.0l engine though while you're on a 4.4 titled thread. I'm saying that I've done the conversion on my 740iL and that you could source parts from some of the same suppliers I used.

I am doing it to a 4.4L with the 530i 3.0L V8 transmission. The 3.0 would just be a factory swap...

That clarifies things then.
Im assuming the 530i you're referring to is the E34...isn't that only a 5 spd and not a 6 like the E39 540/M5 swap like I did?

Any updates on this? Pondering a swap in my 4.8is.
I imagine I would have to use a tranny from a 545i Sport? My biggest concern is software as well.

Hi!
I have 4.6is with manual Getrag S6S Gearbox. AWD is full functional, everything, abslolute everything works as stock. The car drives perfect and has brutal acceleration. We'll do some videos before Christmas, after testing phase, but so far everything seems to be OK. Regards, Nick P.S: please, don't ask for details now, details will follow with videos in couple of months, after I'm sure there's no mechanical issues with the car. P.P.S: the engine will be supercharged and (maybe) stroked in march 2013, if everything will be OK. |
