4L60E with bell housing
A4 shifter
A4 wiring harness
A4 crossmember
A4 flexplate
A4 upper console
A4 pedals
Trans dip stick tube
Converter
Trans cooler
And you'll need an A4 tune thrown in it or have it reflashed to an A4.

That's about all I can think of. It would be easier if you can find an A4 guy willing to swap to a M6. That way you have all the parts you're going to need for the swap. Also you can swap harnesses which is a hell of a lot easier then running a lot of wires to get everything to work.

Is it easy to swap in a 480le instead of 460 le. ? do you have to buy a specific 480 from a certain vehicle or can you get any of them.I may switch to auto as getting a bit sick of clutches.
