    Default VR V6auto into VN?

    Am selling a VR V6 auto transmission and someone has asked me if it will go in a VN. I have no idea, but thought someone here might?

    Thanks

    I wouldn't feel right telling the guy yes and taking his money knowing it was going to be a difficult job.

    4L60E needs VR PCM to run it, Meaning in order to put one behind a VN, You would need complete engine/transmission harness and the VR PCM... also the VR motor runs a Cam angle sensor, which is needed on the VR PCM. So if you were to do it properly you would need VR motor aswell or change the timing cover to a VR item. So not worth it at all..

    I have the motor as well which I was willing to 'throw in' if he bought the transmission.
