I want one. Do you have to leave the exhaust system out though? His car sounds like craparama.

wow, it looks like he really has to reach to get to the shifter.

At the time of the video he had a bad exhaust leak and had just finished the swap. He still needs to rework the clutch, fix the exhaust leak, tune the computer and install a remote shifter.

So what you mean is it's a video of a T45 half installed into a vic:P

Regardless of what I said and what anybody says - that is bad-ass (oooh, can I say that word on THIS site?) It took immense talent to put a manual in the car and he is definitely onto something. The Marauder would be killer with a 5 or 6 speed.

It seemed really uncomfortable shifting, Like the stick was placed too far away or something.

I think a 5spd would suffice in an N/A MM. Perhaps a 6spd would be better for a blown MM.

Now this is a project that I would not mind doing.

There have been more than a few unsuccessful attempts at making this swap, going way back to Navchap's early efforts. I applaud this group's abilities and hope for a good outcome. My understanding is, that this swap is a virtual minefield, and it's good to see someone able to do it.

Before he got his bullet proof tranny done - he was under the impression a 6 speed was impossible. He found out shortly after process was not as bad or impossible as initially thought.

Oh well - Next time around ;)
