euroduber 0 Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 hey people, this is my first time on this forum as i have only just a few months ago bought my first vr6 i bought it knowing that it had a problem in the engine and suspected it to be the head gasket, after many fun hours of stripping it down to replace the gasket, i found the head had a lovely 'phat' crack in it. its and auto M reg at the moment but im going to buy a new engine for it from ebay or something but thought, while im at it, i may as well convert it to manual.now i know that im obviously going to have to salvage a manual box for it and clutch assembly and pedals but is there anything else that will need changing ie; drive shafts and engine mounts etc?any help would be amazing! thanks people stu.
