Another trans swap question

I have read the questions about swapping the tranny for the t5 and 56's, now what i want to know is, wouldnt it be easier and more likely for a Jag s-type 6 speed swap. Correct me if i am wrong but even the jags v6 uses the six speed and it can probably with stand more power and not need a customized bell housing. It, in my opinion would be a little more likely than something from a mustang.

as long as the motor and tranny bolt right up, i mean still if it bolts up your gonna prolly have a truckload of codes your gonna go through...
ive thought alot about this, pedal set from a v6 5 sp, clutch and flywheel ( needs to bolt to crank dunno what would bolt up, obviously needs to fit under bell housing), new crossmember, and new drive shaft, hydro lines, slave cylinder... so yeah, get all that and the car will run and drive but the computer is the problem,
