Auto to 5speed Transmission Conversion Write up(56k no

[Digitalwave]

So anybody know a how to that has pictures?

I can't think of any part of this swap that isn't straight forward and you'd need pictures for. Just get started on it and it gets pretty obvious.

if I find a pedal box from '90+ can I just swap the manual in? or it would be easer to transfer the pedals?

transfer the pedals. you don't even want to try and remove the pedal box.. they are the same anyway.

Easier to transfer the pedals, but possible either way.

Who would want a 100,000 mile radiator anyways?

haha, the 224k radiator from my parts car was nicer than mine... but it may have been replaced.

do you just plug the line openings for auto trans in radiator?

[Maluco]

you can use the automatic radiator, you can also use the automatic starter

sweet

you'll also need clutch master and accompanying hard line and flex line that goes to slave cylinder.

I think that's the hoses I already have. I guess I'll need a resevoir as well....

you'll need a clutch fork, new pilot bearing, clutch fork pin.

Does the pilot bearing not come in the clutch kit?

Somebody help me finally get my list right! Then I can start worrying on actually getting it done. I have the money finally!
