[s-cars] RE: 6-speed problems - replacement from Ur-S4/S6 4.2

[Krasusky Paul (WQQ2PXK)]

<<<2. Getting a replacement is not that hard, but we have found three
6-speed 
transmissions. Two out of Ur-S4 cars (code CBL), that will be the "old"
1st 
gear.. One out of a '96 S6 4.2 V8, (code CMG), which has got a "better"
1st 
gear. Will a transmission from a V8 engine fit the 2.2T without any 
modifications? The part number on the bellhousing is different. I know
the 
ratios are slightly different too, but the final drive ratio is the
same.. 
In addition, the transmission from the V8 car has got an oil pump and 
cooler, but that will not be a problem either..

I bolted up a rebuilt CMG from a '93 4.2L into my 2.2L here in the US.
Direct bolt up, with exception as you noted of the need to either loop
the oil cooler line or to add one.  Otherwise it goes right in.  Ratio
wise, I'm not sure if it would in fact be different than the one he's
currently got.  The CMG has a 0.68 sixth, that's all I recall right
now...

HTH, good luck.
