5 speed tranny

hi all i was wondering if there was a way to fit a 5-speed tranny onto my 93 300e 4matic. If not is there some one who will put longer gears in it?

With enough money, you can do ANYTHING... but hey if we are trying to be practical... well good luck.

In europe, 5 speeds are commonplace, so I would see as what they do first.

I don't think any five speeds made it over here. The fifth gear is fragile and wears out very quickly.

i dont believe you can add the 722.5 to a car with 4matic as the transmission is a little longer. i could be wrong.
