Monte Carlo aerocoupe manual swap

[bendaggs]

hi everyone, looking to do a manual swap on my car, and found this kit. http://americanpowertrain.com/i-852...arlo-el-camino-regal-442-etc-5-speed-kit.html
Has anyone ever used it? What else do I need in this kit other than a transmission? Thank you.

You will still need the clutch pedal and bell crank,(or hydraulic clutch system),bellhousing,clutch,pressure plate,throw out bearing,shifter,and of course,the transmission.

Also,if you have a console equipped Monte,it may need modifications done to make the shifter fit properly.

I am in the middle of planning the Muncie swap in my Monte and the price tag is making my eyes dim from the pain.

Wish someone would just sell a full kit that didn't cost 6k without transmission.

What engine are you putting the manual behind? What power level?
