yep, they only come in automatic, so you're going to need a counter-weight and an aftermarket flywheel to get it to bolt onto a manual tranny...

also, i know of two people here on the forums that often have 13b's and occasionally the 20b's... Japan2LA and 87GTR
you dont need a counterweight, it already has one.

most places that sell 20bs will also have a TII 5 speed tranny they can sell you, which will bolt right up with an aftermarket flywheel. i got mine for 3400 including a spare transmission.

Why?
So you can convert it back to a push-type clutch again?
There is almost no pull-type clutch that can handle the power of a mildly modified 20B.
The FC turbo gear box is basically the same thing, and it's already a push-type system.

yup. I dunno where people got this myth that the FD gearbox is so much better/stronger/faster than the FC's. The S5 T2 has the EXACT same gear ratios, and is almost the same thing. The casing on the FD box is different, and as Ted said, it uses a pull clutch instead of a push. Unless this is going in an FD, make life easier for yourself and just use the S5 T2 tranny.
