Matt, you'll also need pedals, clutch slave and master, manual flywheel (and bolts), clutch and pressure plate etc, cross member, tail shaft, manual spigot bush etc. Here is a thread that will show you the conversion: http://www.calaisturbo.com.au/showthread.php?t=74074

Leaking seal is an easy fix not too sure on the bearing side of things, maybe ask vlnitron (corran) i believe he's done the bearings before.
