Just a quick ?
What about the VSS...
Is it really that easy.. I mean, Buy A Marlin Crawler VSS, plug it into the R154 and then use the same plug in the main auto harness that the auto VSS was in...??
And GREAT thread..!

Depends on year of your sc, I did a 5spd on a 2000 and the vss was off the wheels not the tranny. So I had no wires on the tranny cept the reverse. And yes martin vss or there is a factory one that converts the mechanical to a plug, that's what I'm running, it screws on to it and then you just plug in the connector. And stay tuned guys I'm mocking up a w58 r154 shifter relocator and short shifter all in one!!

So what about Auto SC300 guys, that only have a MKIII R154, what do you do about the transmission crossmember?
You can't bolt the SC Auto Xmember to the MKIII R154 Trans mount.
I already have it figured out, but it's a pretty important piece of information that was left out.

I ended up re-drilling the sc300 Auto crossmember. The spacing is correct, but the width of the 4 bolt holes needs to be a little tighter to fit the MKIII R154 mount.
After that, you need 3" long Bolts and spacers to bolt up the xmember, because it is attached to the sc300 auto mount and pushes the rear of the trans up too far.

Yes but there still is not explanation of how to get around this of you have a MKIII R154.

Ok....so I've nearly worn the "search" button out today so pardon the newbie if I've missed the thread.....
Does anyone know a source/part number/ or any other infomation on the Soarer ECU that will go into a 96-97 SC400 thats been converted to a 5 speed?? I've read as many threads as I can find about bypassing and jumpering circuits and running relays and plugging all of the solenoid back into the harness, but I would much rather just spend the money for an ECU that is plug and play so I can pass emissions.
Thanks!!
