Has anybody completed this project? What is involved? I have a 1975 with a C4 automatic and would like to consider going to a manual.
I would probably go with the n3550. I have a 302 v8.
Sell the C4 to someone and take the old 3-speed parts as part trade. Everything that is different between them is what you need. You need the pedal, linkage, pivots, bellhouseing, etc. Value can be adjusted based on condition of the wear parts. You need everything except the transmission and shift linkage. Get the NV3550 kit and mix that in. Put all the parts in and you have it.
Trying to pick up each part one at a time will nickel and dime you to death. You can also contact one of the venders and tell them what you are doing and let them make you a package deal. Places like Driven Auto Parts have a collection of all the little brackets and replacement wear parts to get everything put together.
