guys just a few questions in regards to my clubby, i want to get a manual conversion. what would i need exactly? what am i looking at for the whole conversion + installation? would any ls1 gearbox fit straight on? really want a manual so any help would be great thanks!
its a bit of work mate..
any T56 from an LS1 will fit with the LS1 bell housing
clutch wise go buy something aftermarket and have the flywheel machined to.
you need to run all the hydrolic lines, and fit the hydrolic pedal box thats probably the most time consuming part
tail shaft and crossmember
can pick up conversions for 1500-2000, but with installing the lines i'd say another 1200 atleast on top to get installed by a workshop just at a guess though..
you would be better of picking up a low km motor and box conversion imo, seen them go for like 3500 lately.. then sell the motor and bits..
could even use the clutch and fly then.
yer most of them i have seen selling come with it all, just shop around man you'll end up finding a good deal..
there is a new wreckers down near colchester road taking over all the business of COMM WRECK in ferntree gully as knowone likes them anymore lol and they are cheap as well have bought heaps of stuff there.

tailshaft in your car (vx) will fit. v6, v8, auto, manual, all run same length shaft, just v8 ones are beefier shafts and donuts are larger. cross member can use a vh 6cyl one. ecu is pretty easy, just need a tuner to disable things in the ecu, even if you get another ecu you will have to disable the theft protection on it due to it fighting the BCM.
