What do you want to know that you don't already?

If the trans doesn't come with a bellhousing, that might be tough to find as anyone who has one (or three ) has a transmission that is attached to it and useless without it. Might cost you the price of just buying a unit construction 240D four speed just for its bellhousing, then keep the 4speed for parts as many internals are the same.

You'll need(nc); Flywheel, clutch, PP, release bear, pedal assy, clutch master and slave, hard line in-between, soft line from brake res, shifter assy (make sure you get the switch with it for reverse lights), shift link arms, manual trans crossmember, 240D front driveshaft to have shortened and balanced. Re-wire 4-pin at auto for a clutch safety switch (neutral/park switch) and reverse switch (at shifter.) Check the crank for any indexing marks so you can align the new FW the same (but I have yet to see any indexes on the 617 motors)
