just thought id mention how wrapped i am with my 5speed conversion so far

pretty easy conversion the crossmember i made come up awesome
ended up using the sunny crossmember center chopping the ends off and fabricating the rest out of 2mm steel to match dropped it down lower to give extactors a wee bit more clearance etc

reverse light switch was cut down and welded up and grind an edge off as to clear mint

BUT IM AFTER A DRAIN PLUG FOR THE BOTTOM OF THE GEARBOX????

can u still buy them new? must be the same as something, dont match 4speed ones or diff or gearboxes however
