I did the swap, yeah, kind of a PITA...the directions I found were crap and I threw them out in 30 minutes, but still got the swap done...if you're serious, email me.

I did the swap over the summer. It took me and my friend a weekend to complete. The biggest PITA were the pedals and master cylinder. If you have any specific questions, email me.

Hey man. It's not that hard. Two days tops if you have all the parts. Cost me 1700 total. E-mail if you have questions.

I've also done the swap. It's involved but not that difficult. Like it was said before, cutting the hole for the clutch master cylinder is probably the most difficult part.
I have a clutch/brake pedal assy if you want it. Name your price.

Thanks all for the replys. I plan on doing this in the future I cant wait to have those 6 gears to grab

Country Boy, I did the swap in a Saturday. I bought a crossmember before I started, so the whole thing was bolt-in. Only modifying was the two inch cut in the floor for more shifter clearnace.

By the way, I bought the transmission over there by you in Brandon.
