Hi there,
My standard 3 speed auto box on my 1976 P6 3500 is sounding very sick and I am now going to move to have a 5 speed manual gearbox installed.
I would appreciate any hints and advice on what to look out when installing 5 speed manual gearboxes.
I am assuming that there will be blank cut-outs on the firewall area for the various bits (clutch pedal etc) and that the pedals will all fit in the drivers compartment relatively easily.
ANy comments from those that have done this conversion before would be greatly appreciated.
Also I want to fit a thermostatic fan set-up on my car to help overcome the ongoing issue of a "HOT" Rover 3500 on the many hot days that we experience in Sydney. Again any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
