Hi there I have the later 134hp engine and was wondering if it will go onto a DG box? Is there a way to modifiy if not?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Why would you want to do this? There is no benefit (to my knowledge) in this conversion! The BW35 box is easier to source, replace, rebuild and or upgrade to BW40 or 51 specs, well above P5B specs. It will also draw off less power than the DG box. I presume you're wanting to upgrade the engine but not the original trans to your P5?

Yes because I already have the DG box and engine. Is it possible to swap a dg box for a bw35 box instead then, would that be easier? Im looking at both options right now.

If the engine is the mk3 version then the BW35 is a direct fit...this is how they came from the factory but unless you're mechanically adept (can weld and fabricate) you'd also want the other pieces from a mk3 to simplify the installation.

I think finding a Mk3 scrapper may be a challenge but good luck
