My truck is a '97 with a 5.0 HO from a '92 Thunderbird with an AOD and running 3.73 gears with 255/60-15 tires. It had a 2.3 with a manual.
The auto was ok to get things going, but I'm really wanting a manual now. I know nothing about manual transmissions, so be easy with me!
Questions:
Can I use the factory plastic line for the clutch?
If the plastic line interferes with the exhaust, is there another line to use?
What transmission from what donor vehicle should I get?
Where does the shifter come thought the floor in relation to the stock shifter?
What do I need to do with the computer?
