I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT KIND OF A PAIN IT WOULD BE TO SWAP OUT A AUTO TRANS TO A 5SPD IN A TURBO COUPE!! I HAVE FOUND A 5SPD DONOR CAR!!WHAT DO I NEED FROM IT TO DO THE SWAP?? I AM LOOKING TO BUY A TURBO COUPE!!! I HOPEFULLY CAN FIND A 5SPD,BUT IF A CLEAN AUTO CAR IS FOUND I JUST WANT TO KNOW WHAT I WOULD BE UP AGAINST TO SWITCH IT OVER!!!
pedal assembly, clutch cable, tranny, bellhousing will all ne needed for sure. im not sure about mounting the trans though as ive never played with those autos so i dont know if theyre the same as a T5
'71 Pinto
If anyone would like this info, i have done the swap. It is not all that difficult only took me about 2 days, (with breaks & running to the parts store and whatnot). Definitely worth the work. I love my 5-speed turbocoupe now.
