    No. If you bothered to look at the Legend bay, the transmission is on the opposite side. 5 speeds of reverse and 1 forward. That's if you could adapt it to fit, and do some volkswagening with the shift linkage...

    I've never seen a Legend's engine bay. And if I did, I wouldn't notice that the transmission was on the opposite side. If it is. I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not.

    Not being sarcastic at all. It's on the drivers side.

    [Edit]: NVM, didn't see the link.
    Usually those transmissions last to 150k and then self-destruct.
