I have a '72 351CJ engine set up for an auto trans. I want to convert it to a manual trans. Other than flexplate to a flywheel, any other changes need to be made or other considerations??? I assume a '72 351CJ flywheel is acceptable? Thank you.
You will need a manual pedal assembly ,clutch Z bar and the stud and ball for the block .You will need the frame bracket for the Z bar .You will need a manual bell housing with backing plate for the larger 4 speed fly wheel ,they need to be matching parts .You will need a starter for a manual transmission ,it has a different cone from one for an automatic starter . It is all bolt in you just have to have all the parts .
