I have a USA 1971 240z fitted with a autobox. It has the later L28 engine and I would like to convert the car to manual.
I know that there are 4 and 5 speed boxes available occasionally secondhand but I was wondering if anyone had used the 6 speed gearbox out of a Mazda RX8?
I already have one from a very low mileage car that isnt being used at the moment.
I assume that I would need an adaptor plate plus special flywheel combination.
Does anyone know if this has been done already? or of a reason why I cant do it? (perhaps the box isnt strong enough?)
Thanks for any help
