tiptronic gearbox (986 - 2001) mated to 997 3.8 Carrera motor

Gentlemen ! I have a question, in that I have a lhd 2001 986 with a 3.8 997 Carrera motor installed (Todd Holyoaks car). I live in Thailand, a rhd country, and I need to swap this motor into a rhd car bought in Thailand. Unfortunately, all 2001 986 or 987 here are fitted with tiptronic gearboxes and I can not find a manual shift car for sale. (The lhd has a manual gearbox). Will it be possible to mate up the tiptronic gearbox with the 3.8 motor that I have and use the wireharness of the rhd with the 3.8 dme and engine harness ? Will the early tiptronics hold the 3.8 torque, etc ? All info, thoughts, appreciated and direct contact to gmacp7941@yahoo.com is fine. Best, Mac
