M90 from 960/s90 is a bolt-on. Also all rwd gearbox can be fitted with modification.

Thats great cheers, how reliable is doing this and can it cause issues once you start to raise the power? looking to be running about 340bhp for starters then once the build is complete i'll be looking to up the anty a bit more sm4

If your thinking about this into a 340 have you looked at the transmission layout at all?
