1981 Questions for all other cars

Hi
I have got a 1981 Holden Wb Panel Van and it is a Automatic and I am wanting to change it from Auto to Manual. I am wondering if you know how much it would cost, how to do it, want parts I need and how long it would take?
Thanks
James

Hi there,

This is not a bad conversion to do, the transmission & tail shaft will fit straight in, yo have to get a flywheel & clutch kit, the biggest problem is fitting the clutch pedal & cable assy. Cutting the floor is not an issue for the shifter but make sure that you have it well sealed from fumes entering the cabin. Cost. Well that is something that your local mechanic will have to work out for you and time to do the job. If you have all the parts you should be able to knock it over in a day.
