auto to manual conversion-please help

Post by Snarba »

HI there I'm replacing a dead motor on our auto pintara and the replacement motor is from a manual. how much is involved in changing the flywheel and torque converter over? I don't mind going to manual but it does seem like a lot of work....change the brake pedal and put in a clutch pedal also change the prop shaft as the manual is a shorter one. I have all the parts on another vehicle but I just want the car running a.s.a.p any thoughts? :cry:
