Well people. Im on the way to making my auto a stick. Picked up the clutch pedals yesterday. damn 7 dust let me sit in his car and since then Ive been thinking about it. The auto is great for city driving but I have a few local cars I have to smoke after this is done. I will be selling all the auto stuff after its done also. I also have a after market auto ecu runs good.

1. Pedals. I got em.
2. Transmission still Looking
3. drive shaft. still Looking.
4. clutch. Still Looking
5. 5 spd ecu. Still looking
And what else will I need?

6. Flywheel. You already have a counterweight so might as well go lightweight.
7. 4:10 rear end. Don't puss out with the auto 3:90 unless you gotta.
8. Shifter and boots (there is the leather top one and a couple of rubber lower ones).
9. Starter
10. Bell housing and starter bolts. The automatic ones aren't long enough.

Thats a good start with the pedals and hydraulics. Looks like its almost all there. In addition - you will need:

Actually, yes. Picked it up yesterday along with a driveshaft. Need bellhousing bolts and a long *** starter bolt. Unfortunately, Angel works today and tomorrow so I guess it's up to us! I'll give you a call today Scott and we'll figure when this shindig will go down. I'll bring some tools, the parts and some beer! I'll give you a call too Anthony..can always use extra help.

On!!!
We got the tranny on and took some stuff off. Still need a Long bolt for the starter and something else but I can't think of the other thing. John will chime in after this post with the other thing. If any1 has what he is looking for and is willing to give it away for free or fair price it would be greatly appreciated.

Today knowledge was attained, beer was consumed, and good times were had! We installed the trans and driveshaft...then we stripped all the emissions and intake manifolds off the engine. Thanks to Anthony, Ben and Scott......Scott, you're a beast. You totally man-handled that transmission into place. "Just F'ing do it!!" right dude? Oh, and we need a speedo cable....didn't even realize it was missing until today when we were finishing bolting up the trans. If anyone's got one laying around just collecting dust, let me know.

Well i called to get the exact time they wanted me to come, and they moved it to 3pm so you can come before but I will be leaving for awhile, but I will be back around 5pm there is still plenty of light. Or you could just come Wed instead, then there is no time restrictions!!
