It would require a full rebuild & a manual valve body
would cost anywhere from 2-4K!!

ive had 2 factory 5 speed manuals, 2 factory autos and now 2 rebuilt 3 speed w o/d jatcos with manualised valve bodies, and i think their the best combo for a street vl turbo.
launches, traffic, passes, drivabilty, no unpredictable kick downs, all covered.
