I've googled and searched the marauder forum for a sticky and haven't came up with one. Is there one and I missed it? :confused:

I've seen countless threads about it but none of an actual write up.

To the best of my knowledge there isn't one. You'll have to go through each thread and pick out what you need. Not a real popular mod.

When you do get it all together and test it out, you can post it!

Any reason why it's not? Just curious.

Unless you get a tranny that can handle the torque & HP needed to get a 4200lb sedan moving (lotsa $$$$$$$) then it isn't worth it.

IMHO..... I want a luxury high performance vehicle.... shifting through the gears doesn't fit in that category.

im assuming the reason there are no threads is because there are major changes that need to done, its not just like dropping in a manual transmission and taking off, theres a lot that goes into it, and not everything done has to be exactly like someone else does it. too much custom fabrication.

T56 is enough from my understanding but I may be wrong.
I'm just inquiring definitely haven't made any decision to take on this

That's why I asked if there was a write up. The bits I took from threads told me only major fab work is fabbing a clutch pedal. Definitely know it won't be identical to anyone

There's A LOT more to it than just fabbing a clutch pedal. PM justbob.

Will do. Won't hurt to gather info for an inquiring mind.
