Trans Swap?

SilverSteed03 · 01-24-2005, 07:55 AM

Just learned to drive stick and I freakin love it! My auto trans isnt anywhere near as exciting. So, would a trans swap be worth the time and money?

As far as I know, getting the tranny switched out is fairly expensive. I used to work with a girl who's fiance is a mechanic, and he did that for a friend of his. What I do know, is that unless you know how to do it, you're gonna be paying for it out the nose, so to speak. I guess, it really depends on what you want out of the car.

it is way too expensive youre better off selling your car and getting one with a stick, but if you really are intrested go to www.stangparts.com and go to the how to articles and its under "doing the t-5 shuffle" (i think) any way it will tell you any thing you need to know! Hope it helps!
