Well I once again bring you a project that seems worthless for the time and money spent. Ah well... Many of you will say just sell the car and get a new one with the 5 speed, but now that the IRS is in, there is no way I will do that.

So
if anyone has a link to a site or something that has info on the swap, please gimme... also if you have any good recommendations... give em
if you have done it, then just tell me if i would need a week or a month to do it... (the IRS was done in a week, but we could've finished in a day)

and last but not least, I need a complete parts list

Interior shift boot and bezel from manual-------50
Bellhousing bolts
Drive shaft bolts
Flywheel bolts for 5 speed

why not just build your auto tranny?? you will be able to kick a 5 speed in a race if you just build yours up :shrug:
exactly how much fun do i have in an auto car with no shifting and no extra control that is available with the stick...

i've driven stick shift cars and i know that's what i want
