Default How much?

How much would it cost to switch from automatic to a manual tranny.

You can do it for about 1800 bucks if you budget right. Think of it this way. Why use brand new parts for the system when you will be needing some warmup time getting used to driving the m6 over the manual. I say get a kit used for about 1500 bucks then get new slave and master and call it a day. You can do it yourself for nothing and only spend about 1800 bucks. just some food for thought

My swap kit costed $2000.
I added a Spec clutch + flywheel.
I'll soon swap the rear end because I still have the 2.73.
$3000 all together?
Maybe new hydraulics too.

I have an upgraded t-56. It was rebuilt 3k ago with all the upgades from D&D including the viper output shaft. I would sell the conversion for 2300.00 including a spec stage 5 clutch, a billet steel flywheel, pro 5.0, lines, slave, master, and a drive shaft.
