#1 Automatic to mechanical gearbox conversion

Hello Fellows,
May I ask you - if this is not a question already asked in other posts - about the conversion of the gearbox, from an automatic to a mechanical one?
From your point of view, is this a traumatic task? is there any company selling a kit of parts?
Help
Warm regards!
Claudio

Bom Dia Claudio
Very simple, very worthwhile and not too expensive if you use Jaguar parts. In almost all cases it increases the value of the car by more than the cost and a manual V12 is VERY different from an auto - being much more responsive.. Might be hard to get parts in Brazil but I have everything in the USA.

Hello Pete,
thanks for your response.
If you state "I have everything in USA" means you have this kit for sale? is this a big money Pete?
Kind regards.

Less than the cost of a 5-speed but price depends on whether you go for standard V12 box or overdrive. Am back in USA on Saturday so send me a private email.
