    Bored, so got an itch... DCT LSx?

    The E92 or F series DCT, the price is mighty tempting at the moment. Has anyone found pics of a Getrag DCT under in an E36 trans tunnel? Anyone plopped one of these in their car?
    I don't have the CAD files for the 7spd, but trying to ballpark of how difficult it would be to route the exhaust around that transmission on a LS swap. Being a CANbus LS3 the concept has become extremely intriguing with the maxxecu standalone

    Thank you, I'd seen their stuff, but it's not the electronics I'm remotely worried about, that's oddly the easy part with the amount of documentation (to me at least). Its the physical specs that I'm concerned with; I don't have a 7spd to measure out. The 8hp small and large case I can get the measurements for though.

    It's been done and doesn't even really break the bank these days. There are adapter kits and aftermarket controllers available for the DCT
