Make a good reshell once its converted to manual

 

cheap. It looks clean in the pics too.

 

looks clean that!

 

is there differences with the shell between auto's and manuals like? likewise with cosworths and other models.

Thinking about keeping mine again and getting it sorted but dont know weather to get my shell repaired or re-shell, would kill the value being non cosworth on the book also wouldnt it?

 

many years ago when i convert a capri mk3 from auto to manual, i found that where the gear lever is on the tunnel, the manual has a round hole and the auto has a square hole, and i can remember something about the starter being on the opposite side to the manual, which also meant the battery was on the wrong side, dont know if the sierra is the same, and of course if you change it to manual you will need to change the diff as well, for a 2.0 manual diff
