Greetings.
I am a lucky owner of a BMW 750iL. However she decided to steal a weekend or two from me by way of rough shifting transmission and vibrating driveshaft. Now before I swap the tranny for a rebuilt and take care of the center bearing, I decided to seek the help of the internet community. My question is; since the 850 basically has the same motor and is available with a six speed manual. Is it possible to make the 750 a manual without major frame cutting or excessive welding? Is it at least possible to put the 5-speed automatic from the 740 into my car? Has anyone ever successfuly made this happen, or saw someone do it, or at least heard about someone making it happen? Thank you for your help.
